Luyties, that's pronounced LOO-TEEZ In the 1840s, Herman Luyties, MD, opened a small homeopathic practice in downtown St. Louis. Soon after, doctors moving west began pressing him for homeopathic kits and supplies since he was the first local resource west of the Mississippi River. As the demand increased, he moved his office to the back and in 1853 officially opened a small homeopathic pharmacy. When the Homeopathic Medical College of Missouri was established in St. Louis in 1857, Luyties Pharmacal Company became a primary resource for homeopathy across the country. Dr. Luyties worked diligently on formulating combination tablets for specific ailments which would make it easier for his patients to care for their own self treatable conditions, especially for patients travelling or living too far out for him to reach them quickly.

In 1904 August Luyties, (Herman's son) built our current building, a much needed factory size building. Luyties has been a much loved family business ever since it began. This long history helps explain our wide product line, our loyal customer base, our family heritage and our commitment to classical homeopathy. As a family owned and operated company, Luyties' generations of dedicated employees have fostered the art and science of manufacturing homeopathic remedies and remained steadfast to homeopathic principles through the trials and hardships homeopathy has endured to reach today's level of acceptance and popularity.
