An early NyQuil commercial (1970)

 Vicks, now a component of Procter & Gamble, introduced NyQuil cough medicine in 1966 as a complement to Formula 44, which, it appears, is no longer around, while P & G has expanded NyQuil into a whole of line of products, including a children's version and DayQuil.

In this 1970 ad, an ailing husband (Bill Fiore, predating his Right Guard ad run with Chuck McCann) is introduced to NyQuil by his wife (Louise Lasser). Lloyd Nolan (Julia) is the narrator.
