For many years, Farmacia Genové offered its own pharmaceutical products, such as its famous Phosphorous Drops or Polyvalent Ferments, and the first relations between Genové and Spanish dermatologists were established.

Dr. Genové’s house is a modernist building situated at number 77 on the Rambla in Barcelona and was commissioned by Dr. Genové himself to be used as both a pharmacy and a laboratory. It was designed in 1911 by the architect Enric Sagnier i Villavechia.

At first, he diversified and used the building not only as a pharmacy, but also as a laboratory and pharmaceutical wholesaler, where pharmaceutical formulas were developed and had a widespread impact on the Spanish pharmacopoeia.
Subsequently, he started producing dermatological formulations for hygiene, cosmetics, hair and sun protection.
