CORAL SPRINGS, Fla., Jan. 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- -- via OTC PR WIRE -- Nutra Pharma Corporation (OTC:NPHC), a biotechnology company marketing Nyloxin® and Pet Pain-Away™ in the over-the-counter (OTC) pain management market, announced today that they
have partnered with EuroAmerican IP, LLC to distribute their Over-the-Counter (OTC) pain reliever, Nyloxin® Topical Gel, through
the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS). The successful addition to FSS will make the product available for purchase through the US -
General Services Administration (GSA Advantage) website at www.gsaadvantage.gov.
"With the nation focused on the treatment of chronic pain and the reduction of opiate use, especially for
veterans, Nyloxin should go a long way to effectively managing chronic pain symptoms for many of our wounded warriors and reducing
their use of opiate drugs," stated Rik J Deitsch, CEO of Nutra Pharma. "By partnering with EuroAmerican, we expect to be able to
effectively distribute our products directly to various agencies and health departments," he continued. "It is our plan to begin
actively marketing Nyloxin Topical Gel through the GSA Advantage to governmental agencies, including the Department of Veterans
Affairs, to EuroAmerican’s Federal Supply Schedule," he concluded.
The U.S. Department of Defense has been reporting an increase in the use and abuse of prescription medications;
particularly opiates. In October, the Federal government declared the opiate epidemic a national public health emergency. But
prescription drugs are not the only issue. The most common and seemingly harmless way to treat pain is with non-steroidal,
anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS). But these have risks as well. Overuse can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, heartburn, ulcers and
internal bleeding. In severe cases chest pain, heart failure, kidney dysfunction and life-threatening allergic reactions can occur.
Ibuprofen, also an NSAID, has been of particular concern in the military. The terms “Ranger Candy” and “Military Candy” refer to
the service men and women who are said to use 800mg doses of Ibuprofen to control their pain. But when taking anti-inflammatory
Ibuprofen in high doses for chronic pain, there is potential for critical health risks; abuse can lead to serious stomach problems,
internal bleeding and even kidney failure. There are significantly greater health risks when abuse of this drug is combined with
alcohol intake.
Nyloxin® is a safe, non-narcotic, and non-addictive Homeopathic pain reliever clinically proven to treat
moderate to severe chronic pain while not impairing cognitive function. Nyloxin® offers several benefits as pain relievers and
anti-inflammatory agents. With increasing concern about consumers using opioid and acetaminophen-based pain relievers, Nyloxin®
offers an alternative that does not rely on opiates or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, otherwise known as NSAIDs, for their
pain relieving effects. Nyloxin® has a well-defined safety profile. Since the early 1930s, the active pharmaceutical ingredient
(API), Asian cobra venom, has been studied in more than 46 human clinical studies.
“We are excited to be working with Nutra Pharma,” commented Debra J Paul, CEO, and Tami Dana, COO, of
EuroAmerican. “Nyloxin is an exciting alternative to opiate drugs. We believe that it can be a significant tool for combatting
opioids in our veterans and in our military,” they continued. “We have seen that Nyloxin substantially reduces all types of pain
without mental confusion, addiction or toxicity. We believe that we can quickly and successfully add the Nyloxin products to our
existing product list for distribution through our Federal Supply Schedule #V797D-40251 to be available as a replacement for
opioids and other pain management drugs,” they concluded.
