     The following information supplements, and must be read in connection with,
the information contained in the Prospectus, dated December 8, 2000 (the
"Prospectus"), of Allergan, Inc., a Delaware corporation. This Prospectus
Supplement must be delivered with a copy of the Prospectus. All capitalized

                            ------------------------

                             SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

     The LYONs were originally issued by us and sold by Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated (the "Initial Purchaser") in a transaction exempt
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to persons reasonably
believed by such Initial Purchaser to be "qualified institutional buyers" (as
defined by Rule 144A under the Securities Act). The Selling Securityholders
(which term includes their transferees, pledges, donees or successors) may from
time to time offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus any and all of the LYONs
and common stock.

     Set forth below are the names of each Selling Securityholder, the principal
amount of LYONs that may be offered by such Selling Securityholder pursuant to
this prospectus and the number of shares of common stock into which such LYONs
are convertible. Unless set forth below, none of the Selling Securityholders has
had a material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates
within the past three years.

     The following table sets forth certain information received by us on or
prior to August 14, 2001. However, any or all of the LYONs or common stock
listed below may be offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus by the Selling
Securityholders from time to time. Accordingly, no estimate can be given as to
the amounts of LYONs or common stock that will be held by the Selling
Securityholders upon consummation of any such sales. In addition, the Selling
Securityholders identified below may have sold, transferred, or otherwise
disposed of all or a portion of their LYONs since the date on which the
information regarding their LYONs was provided, in transactions exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(1)  Assumes conversion of all of the Holder's LYONs at a conversion rate of
     5.7615 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of
     the LYONs. However, this conversion rate will be subject to adjustment as
     described under "Description of the LYONs - Conversion Rights." As a
     result, the amount of common stock issuable upon conversion of the LYONs
     may increase or decrease in the future.

(2)  The Allstate Corporation ("Allstate") directly and through its subsidiaries
     currently owns 29,600 shares of Company common stock. The Agents Pension
     Plan (the "Pension Plan") currently owns 1,400 shares of Company common
     stock. The Pension Plan is a qualified ERISA plan that is maintained for
     the benefit of certain agents of Allstate Insurance Company ("AIC"), a
     subsidiary of Allstate. The Trustee for the Pension Plan holds title to all
     Pension Plan investments. Allstate disclaims any interest in securities
     held in the pension plan trust, although the Investment Committee of the
     Pension Plan consists of AIC officers. In the course of managing their
     investment portfolios, AIC and its affiliates may acquire and hold
     investments that exceed 10% of a class of equity securities of an issuer.
     The Public Equity Group of the Investment Department of AIC, which has the
     responsibility for the securities described herein, is not aware of any
     positions, offices or other material relationships involving AIC or its
     subsidiaries which are required to be disclosed. However, no independent
     investigation has been made as to whether there are or may have been any
     such transactions as a result of insurance activities, investment
     activities or other groups or divisions or actions with respect to or by
     such investing companies.

(7)  Information about other Selling Securityholders will be set forth in
     prospectus supplements, if required.

(8)  Assumes that any other Holders of LYONs, or any future transferees,
     pledgees, donees or successors of or from any such other Holders of LYONs,
     do not beneficially own any common stock other than the common stock
     issuable upon conversion of the LYONs at the initial conversion rate.

     The preceding table has been prepared based upon information furnished to
us by the Selling Securityholders in the table. From time to time, additional
information concerning ownership of the LYONs and common stock may rest with
certain Holders thereof not named in the preceding table, with whom we believe
we have no affiliation.

     The Selling Securityholders listed in the above table may have sold or
transferred, in transactions exempt form the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, some or all of their LYONs since the date on which the
information is presented in the above table. Information about the Selling
Securityholders may change over time. Any changed information will be set forth
in prospectus supplements.

     Because the Selling Securityholders may offer all or some of their LYONs or
the underlying common stock from time to time, we can not estimate the amount of
the LYONs or the underlying common stock that will be held by the Selling
Securityholders upon the termination of any particular offering. See "Plan of
Distribution."
