 STRONG FIGURES AT DRUGS GIANT          
                                        
 Impressive figures are in the pipeline 
 on Wednesday from Glaxo Wellcome, the  
 world's biggest drugs group.           
                                        
 Comparative figures are impossible     
 given the latest results are for the 18
 months to the end of December after the
 group changed its year-end date.       
                                        
 Brokjt Merrill Lynch is forecasting    
 pre-tax profits of £2.6bn and all eyes 
 will bj on sales of blockbuster Zantac.
