4
The Company
•
To build a substantial and profitable business rapidly, beginning with three products
developed by its founders, with markets collectively worth well over $6 billion in
the U.S.
•
To establish a leadership position in the highly fragmented non-prescription market by
introducing a “new kind of product line.” Our product line consists of effective
alternative remedies for common ailments, marketed to the masses.
The Company intends to launch its first two retail products then leverage that
success to ultimately become a leader in the non-prescription medicine
marketplace.
5
Product Pipeline: LipiGesic™ M, LipiGesic™ H
and LipiGesic™ PM
•
Are all effective alternative to both non-prescription & prescription products
currently available.
•
Have essentially no competition in the ‘alternative’ category.
•
Will compete effectively against established ‘standard’ (non prescription &
prescription) products - we’ll prove it.
•
Address predictably recurring ailments.
• No seasonality.
• The same consumers continue to suffer.
• Each customer becomes potentially long-term, substantial, recurring revenue.
6
What is Sublingual Delivery?
More Than a Product – It’s a Platform
Sublingual delivery is efficient and superior to most other delivery systems.
Sublingual Delivery means “under the tongue.”
•
Faster than pills. The capillaries under the tongue are very close to the surface enabling very
fast absorption and action.
•
Avoids the “first pass” effect. Since the drug is absorbed under the tongue it does not get
broken down by the stomach and liver as in the case of pills and liquids that are dosed orally.
