Nutra Pharma Announces Jordan Distributor for Their Nyloxin Pain Relievers
CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Nutra Pharma Corp. (OTCBB: NPHC), a biotechnology company that is
developing treatments for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Human
Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) and Pain,
announced today that it has selected MedicinesConsult to serve as the
exclusive distributor in Jordan for its Nyloxin-branded pain relievers.
"Nutra Pharma continues to increase awareness internationally and while
we are establishing the framework for international distribution of our
pain relievers," commented Rik J Deitsch, Chairman and CEO of Nutra
Pharma Corporation. "MedicinesConsult has already begun the
registration process for our Nyloxin products in Jordan and will begin
an aggressive marketing campaign throughout the Middle East once they
have regulatory clearance," he added.
MedicinesConsult is known for their highly experienced management and
consultant marketers who have broad experience in the medical field,
including: prescription and OTC drugs, biotech products, medical
equipment and medical devices. MedicinesConsult works directly with the
Jordanian Ministry of Health, Military and Governmental Hospitals,
private hospitals, and other health institutions in Jordan with the
mission to provide the Jordanian market, as well as the Middle East and
North Africa markets, with high quality medical products for human use.
Recently, the Jordan Food and Drug Administration (JFDA) have warned the
public against extensive use of painkillers containing paracetamol
(acetaminophen) because of the associated risk of liver damage.
Additionally, it was reported in the November 1, 2010 issue of The
Jordan Times that although Jordanians consume the most painkillers
in the region, more needs to be done to improve access to necessary
drugs. According to the Jordanian Pain Society (JPS), Jordan was ranked
59th internationally and first regionally in the consumption of
painkillers in 2008. According to JPS Secretary General Ahmad Khatib,
more efforts are needed to improve access to painkillers in Jordan to
reach international averages. General Khatib noted that the sub-average
rates are due to the belief of health institutions and physicians that
the use of painkillers leads to addiction and their related refusal to
prescribe the drugs to their patients -- hence the necessity for a
non-addictive alternative.
Nyloxin
is an over-the-counter (OTC) pain reliever clinically proven to treat
moderate to severe (Stage 2) chronic pain. Nyloxin is currently
available in the United States as an oral spray for treating back pain,
neck aches, headaches, joint pain, migraines, and neuralgia, and as a
topical gel for treating joint pain, neck pain, arthritis pain, and pain
from repetitive stress. In addition to its everyday strength
formulation, Nyloxin is also offered in an extra strength formula for
more advanced, Stage 3, chronic pain.
Previously, Nutra Pharma announced agreements with distributors in
Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela and Lebanon. The drug registration process
for both Cobroxin and Nyloxin are currently being pursued in more than
20 countries.
