INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Schering-Plough Employees' Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available
for benefits of Schering-Plough Employees' Savings Plan (the "Plan")
as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended
December 31, 1993.  These financial statements are the responsibil-
ity of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan
as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net assets
available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1993 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The accompanying
supplemental information is presented for the purpose of additional
analysis of the basic financial statements rather than to present
information regarding the net assets available for benefits and
changes in net assets available for benefits of the S-P Common Stock
Fund, Vanguard Investment Portfolios, and Loan Fund and the
accompanying supplemental schedules of (1) assets held for
investment as of December 31, 1993 and (2) transactions in excess of
five percent of the current value of plan assets for the year ended
December 31, 1993 are presented for the purpose of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. Such supplemental information and schedules are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Such supplemental
information and schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in our audit of the basic 1993 financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects when considered in relation to the basic 1993 financial
statements taken as a whole.

                SCHERING-PLOUGH EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS PLAN
                      NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS        
          
1.   Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Accounting - The accounts of the Schering-Plough
     Employees' Savings Plan (the "Plan") have been prepared in
          accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
     
The financial statements were prepared in accordance with
     the financial reporting requirements of the Employee
     Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 as permitted by the
          Securities and Exchange Commission.
     
Schering-Plough (S-P) Common Stock Fund - Investments in
     Schering-Plough common stock are valued using the unit
     accounting method.  Under this method, an employee's account
     value is expressed in units of participation in the
     Schering-Plough Common Stock Fund, rather than in number of
     shares of Schering-Plough common stock.  At December 31,
     1993 and 1992 there were 207,886 and 190,536 units of
     participation, respectively.  The net asset value per unit
     was $155.37 and $144.49 at December 31, 1993 and 1992,
     respectively.  Dividend income for the year ended December
     31, 1993 was $783,644, which was re-invested in Schering-
          Plough common stock.
     
Vanguard Money Market Reserves (VMMR) - Prime and Treasury
     Portfolios - Money market funds are stated at cost which
          approximates market value.
     
Vanguard Index - 500 Portfolio, Explorer, Windsor,
     Wellington and Short-term Corporate Funds - Investments in
     investment funds are stated at the Plan's equity in the net
     asset value (redemption value) of the respective investment
          company at the end of the period.
     
Unallocated Insurance Contract - Unallocated insurance
     contract includes the value of funds held in insurance
     company general accounts.  The value includes cost plus
     interest earned for the period.  The interest rate for the
     unallocated insurance contract was approximately 8.23%. 
     That contract matured on December 31, 1993.  On the same
     day, the matured funds were transferred to available
          Vanguard funds or the Schering-Plough Common Stock Fund.
     
Loan Fund - The Plan allows participants to borrow against
     their fund accounts.  These loans, which are secured by the
     participants' individual fund accounts, bear a fixed rate of
     interest as determined to be reasonable by the Schering-
     Plough Employees' Savings Plan Committee, and are repayable
     over periods not exceeding five years, except loans relating
     to a principal residence which are repayable over a period
     not to exceed 20 years.  All principal and/or interest
     payments made by the participant are credited to the account
          of the borrowing participant.
     
     
     
       
Income Tax Status - The Internal Revenue Service has issued
     a determination letter dated March 31, 1989 to the effect
     that the Plan is a qualified employee benefit plan, meeting
     the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue
     Code and the Trust established thereunder is exempt from
          Federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of the Code.
     
As long as the Plan continues to remain qualified under
     present Federal income tax laws and regulations,
     participants will not be taxed on salary-deferral
     contributions or on investment earnings on such
     contributions at the time such contributions and investment
     earnings are received by the trustee under the Plan, but
     will be subject to tax thereon at such time as the
          participants receive distributions from the Plan.
     
2.   Plan Description and Administration

     The following brief description of the Plan is provided for
     general information purposes only.  Participants should
          refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information.
     
The Plan is designed to permit employees to elect to have a
     portion of their salary contributed to the Plan ("Salary
     Deferral Contribution") on their behalf.  Under the
     provisions of the Plan the amount of a participant's Salary
     Deferral Contribution can be 1%, 2%, 3% or 4% of the
     participant's compensation.  Salary Deferral Contributions
     and any earnings accrued thereon are fully and immediately
     vested in the participant's account.  Distributions of the
     entire amount of a participant's account will be made upon
     death, permanent disability, retirement or other termination
     of employment.  The distributions will be made in lump-sum,
     or, in certain circumstances, in installments over a period
     not to exceed the life expectancy of the participant or
     joint life expectancy of a participant and a designated
     beneficiary.  Distributions of all or a portion of a
     participant's account, prior to termination of employment,
          may be granted in the case of financial hardship.   
     
All domestic employees of Schering-Plough Corporation and
     its subsidiaries who have attained one year of service are
     eligible to participate in the Plan.  There were
     approximately 8,870 and 8,407 participants in the Plan at
     December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.  Contributions are
     allocated to any of the eight investment funds.  Although
     the Company has not expressed any intent to do so, they may
          terminate the plan subject to provisions of ERISA.
     
All administrative expenses of the Plan are borne by the
     employers of the participating employees.  The Vanguard
     Fiduciary Trust Company serves as trustee and investment
          manager for the Plan.<PAGE>

tions.  The trustee is The Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company. 
Administrative expenses were paid by Schering-Plough.  A total of
8,407 persons were participants in or beneficiaries of the Plan
at the end of the plan year.
