CHESTER, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 22, 2017 / Repro Med Systems, Inc., dba RMS Medical Products (OTCQX: REPR),
today announced FDA developments and organizational changes.
The FDA has officially notified RMS that the Warning Letter issued on February 26, 2016 has been closed. This was mainly as a
result of a comprehensive "Integrated Catch-Up Freedom Syringe Driver System" 510(k) K162613, which was cleared on September 1,
2017, and which not only confirmed the science behind the RMS technology but also the general and specific uses for subcutaneous
(SQ) medications such as immunoglobulins and intravenous (IV) medications, including antibiotics. Andy Sealfon, CEO of RMS, stated,
"We are thrilled and excited that FDA has recognized the leading edge concept of a constant pressure infusion system which must
include everything in the fluid path to determine the performance consistent with the FDA's definition of Infusion Pump. The final
chapter of closing the Warning Letter confirms that FDA has found RMS to have adequately addressed all the concerns raised in the
Warning Letter. This effort was conducted under the outstanding leadership of our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Fred Ma."
Additionally, as a result of a comprehensive strategic review undertaken by the Board of Directors, the Company is announcing
certain organizational changes.
Eric Bauer has resigned from his position of Chief Operating Officer, effective November 17, 2017, to pursue other opportunities
and has agreed to assist RMS with an orderly transition.
As part of the strategic review, the Board of Directors, encouraged by the CEO and Chairman of the Board, Andrew Sealfon, has
initiated a search to find a qualified successor for Mr. Sealfon as CEO as soon as practicable. Mr. Sealfon continues to serve as
CEO until such successor has been appointed and Mr. Sealfon is anticipated to remain with the Company until his retirement.
Finally, in an effort to prepare the Company for anticipated growth, the Board of Directors has committed to strengthening its
membership and governance in coming months.
