Abstract:
In 1910, pharmacist Thomas Melville Stanback compounded his first Stanback Headache Powder, and it was later introduced to the public in over-the-counter sales at the Rowan Drug Company in Spencer. Later, he formed a partnership with his brother Fred J. Stanback in 1924. Today, company products are distributed all over the nation. All manufacturing takes place at the company's Salisbury plant in Rowan County.
