`
`Allergan Plc, the drugmaker known for its best-
`seller Botox, agreed to merge with pharmaceutical
`giant Pfizer Inc. in a $160 billion deal.
`
`The company, which was recently created as a
`combination of Actavis Plc and Allergan Inc.,
`appealed to Pfizer in part because of how it could
`help cut the drug giant's tax bill. Pfizer is known for
`making blockbuster drugs Viagra and Lipitor.
`
`Here's the story of how Allergan went from a small
`Los Angeles company known for making eye-drops
`to an Ireland-domiciled drug giant to 2015's biggest
`takeover target.
