They were pioneers applying advertisement for pharmaceutical products, using airplanes, city trains, aerostatic globes etc. as examples for the most expectacular. Due to the entry of several big enterprises in Spain Bescansa's products started to decrease. In the early 70's the product's catalogue was reduced until the actual one, without nearly any commercial support. In the 90’s the laboratory participates in a business headed to the production of natural substances founded by Mr. Pedro Bescansa de la Gándara.
