TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 26, 2016) - BioSyent Inc. ("BioSyent") (TSX VENTURE:RX) is pleased to
announce that its FeraMAX® brand was recently named as the #1 recommended over-the-counter ("OTC") iron
supplement brand in a national survey of Canadian physicians and pharmacists.
The survey was conducted by Rogers Connect™ Market Research group and the following publications within the Rogers Healthcare
Group: Pharmacy Practice+, The Medical Post, and Profession Santé. This was the first time that
the iron supplement category was included in this annual survey which was conducted between July and October 2015 with Canadian
physicians and retail pharmacists. In total, over 3,141 surveys were completed. FeraMAX® was named by 31% of
physicians surveyed and 33% of pharmacists surveyed as their most recommended iron supplement brand to Canadian patients.
FeraMAX® has established a unique position in the market by providing patients with an iron supplement with less
gastrointestinal side effects and easy once a day dosing. FeraMAX® has continued to solidify its leadership
position with market-focused line extensions. FeraMAX® Powder was launched for pediatric patients to help prevent
iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia. In addition, FeraMAX® Vegan Certified capsules were introduced
this year, which provide the only certified iron therapy option for vegans, vegetarians, and patients with other dietary
restrictions.
"We are very pleased with the #1 recommendation for FeraMAX® in the respected Rogers Healthcare Group survey"
commented Mr. René Goehrum, President and CEO of BioSyent. "The innovative polysaccharide-iron complex of FeraMAX® has
allowed BioSyent to differentiate itself from the competitors, and we are pleased that physicians and pharmacists have recognized
the unique benefits FeraMAX® offers to patients, including improved safety, tolerability, and convenience."
