Technology/IP
Phosphagenics’ delivery technology was developed by phosphorylating tocopherols to form mono and di tocopheryl phosphates. The mixture of these two tocopheryl phosphates (TPM™) has been found to enhance the delivery of proven pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals.
The potential benefits of transdermal drug delivery have been widely reported in scientific literature and include a reduction in dose related side effects, the prevention of first-pass hepatic elimination and gastrointestinal degradation, as well as improved patient compliance.
