| Implementation of New Financial Accounting Standards | Implementation of New Financial Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, requires disaggregation of specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements and a qualitative description of the remaining expense amounts not separately disaggregated. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and requires prospective application with the option to apply it retrospectively. We intend to adopt this standard in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2027. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this standard on our disclosures.

| Business Combinations | Business Combinations When an acquisition met the definition of a business under GAAP, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date in our consolidated condensed financial statements. The determination of estimated fair value required management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets was recorded as goodwill. The results of operations of the acquisition are included in our consolidated condensed financial statements from the date of acquisition.

| Risk Management and Related Financial Instruments | Risk Management and Related Financial Instruments To manage foreign currency and interest rate risk, we may enter into derivative instruments intended to offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities, and transactions being hedged. Such instruments are entered into in accordance with documented corporate risk-management policies.
|
| Derivatives | In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates which can vary the costs of financing, investing, and operating. Our primary interest-rate risk exposure results from changes in short-term U.S. dollar interest rates. In an effort to manage interest-rate exposures, we may enter into derivative contracts to achieve an acceptable balance between fixed- and floating-rate debt or to reduce cash flow variability from changes in interest rates as part of anticipated debt issuances. |
| Contingencies | Legal proceedings that we believe are significant or could become significant or material are described below. For proceedings in which we are named as defendants, unless otherwise noted, we cannot reasonably estimate the maximum potential exposure or the range of possible loss in excess of amounts accrued; however, we believe that the resolution of all such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or liquidity, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations in any one accounting period. Litigation accruals and environmental liabilities and any related estimated insurance recoverables are reflected on a gross basis as liabilities and assets, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. We accrue for estimated exposures to the extent they are both probable and reasonably estimable based on the then available information. We accrue for certain unfiled product liability claims to the extent we can formulate a reasonable estimate of their exposure. We estimate these exposures based primarily on historical claims experience and data regarding product usage. Legal defense costs expected to be incurred in connection with significant liability loss contingencies are accrued when both probable and reasonably estimable. Because of the nature of pharmaceutical products, it is possible that we could become subject to large numbers of additional product liability and related claims in the future. Due to a very restrictive market for litigation liability insurance, we are predominantly self-insured for litigation liability losses for all our currently and previously marketed products.
