YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT

PLEASE VOTE YOUR PROXY TODAY

April 2, 2007

Dear Fellow Stockholder:

We previously mailed to you a proxy statement dated March 19, 2007 and other proxy materials in connection with Wyeth’s 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders which will take place on April 26, 2007. According to our latest records, we have not yet received your vote for this important meeting. Your vote is very important. I strongly encourage you to vote your shares.

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders are being asked to consider and vote on the election of 13 nominees to our Board of Directors, three management proposals and seven stockholder proposals, if properly presented at the meeting.

Your vote is of particular importance this year. The proposal to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate supermajority vote requirements (proposal 3 on the proxy card) requires the affirmative vote of at least 80% of the voting power of all the outstanding shares of Wyeth. A similar proposal was passed at last year’s annual meeting after receiving strong support from our stockholders and corporate governance groups. Accordingly, the vote of all stockholders is important. If a Wyeth stockholder does not vote, it has the same effect as voting against the proposal to eliminate supermajority vote requirements. Please act today to vote your shares.

Please submit your vote for the 2007 Annual Meeting – by voting by telephone, via the Internet, or by marking, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form in the postage-paid return envelope provided.

Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.

 

Sincerely,

ROBERT ESSNER
CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
