Sunpeaks Ventures Seeks Profits in $11.2 Billion Global Anticoagulant Market

SILVER SPRING, Md., March 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunpeaks Ventures, Inc. (OTCBB: SNPK) (PINKSHEETS: SNPK) (the "Company" or "Sunpeaks Ventures") and its' wholly owned subsidiary Healthcare Distribution Specialist, LLC ("HDS") are pleased to provide this update regarding the development and market potential of Clotamin®, an OTC multivitamin product owned and marketed by the Company.

Clotamin® is the world's first specialized OTC multivitamin product designed exclusively for use by patients on Warfarin® or other anticoagulants (blood thinners).  According to BioMed Trends, in a report released by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., the global anticoagulants market is projected to surpass $11.2 billion by the year 2015, driven by an aging global population, rising incidence of cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and acute hip and knee complications, as well as emergence of innovative therapeutics targeting new and previously targeted clotting factors.

"The Warfarin market is absolutely enormous, – in fact, it's one of the Top 20 most prescribed drugs in the United States, with over 32 million prescriptions being written each year for approximately 6 to 7 million patients," stated Mackie A. Barch, CEO of Sunpeaks and longtime Warfarin patient.  "By my calculations, if Sunpeaks is able to penetrate just 5% of the Warfarin market in just the U.S., sales for Clotamin could potentially surpass $25 million dollars annually.  We look forward to ramping up our marketing and distribution efforts over the next few weeks and increasing awareness of Clotamin nationwide."
