Tauriga Sciences, Inc. Expands Agreement with Targeted Medical Pharma, Inc.
LOS ANGELES, March 4, 2015 Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: TAUG) ("Tauriga" or the "Company"), a diversified life sciences company with interests in the natural wellness sector and in developing a proprietary synthetic biology platform technology, announced today that it has expanded its July, 2014 non-exclusive licensing agreement with Targeted Medical Pharma Inc. (OTCQB: TRGM) ("Targeted Medical"). The agreement involves two products in Tauriga's current natural wellness line that Tauriga has reformulated and relabeled as dietary supplements from Targeted Medical's medical food formulations: ClearNaze, a natural decongestant without stimulant or drowsiness effects, and Satietiva, an amino acid-based appetite suppressant. Tauriga and Targeted Medical expanded the original July, 2014 non-exclusive licensing agreement to allow Tauriga to market and sell directly to all consumers, not just to those with an interest in the effects of medicinal cannabis.
Tauriga Chairman and CEO Dr. Stella M. Sung states, "We are thrilled to commercialize ClearNaze and Satietiva, along with Tauriga's proprietary formulations, to a broader population because we believe that all of our natural wellness products produce functional improvement independent of the etiology or cause of the health challenge."
Targeted Medical CEO Kim Giffoni adds, "The expanded relationship is beneficial for both companies. Tauriga's success in generating revenues for ClearNaze and Satietiva will result in royalty revenue for Targeted Medical, and our efforts are complementary and synergistic."
Tauriga's recently launched natural wellness product line currently consists of six products. Two of these products contain cannabidiol (CBD) oil extracted from non-GMO industrial hemp as their key ingredient: CannaCaviar, the Company's cannabidiol (CBD) soft gels; and TopiCanna, Tauriga's proprietary topical medicinal cannabis cream. Both TopiCanna and CannaCaviar are designed to provide potential natural wellness and healing properties without psychoactive effects. Tauriga has two non-cannabis containing natural wellness dietary supplements in addition to ClearNaze and Satietiva: IndiCalm, an anxiolytic that does not induce cognitive impairment, and MendOCan, a highly pure, potent and palatable Omega 3 supplement.

Lawrence A. May, M.D., Tauriga's Chief Medical Officer and previously head of medical affairs at Herbalife, states, "I have worked with medical foods for over ten years, and I am enthusiastic about applying the technology for generating neurotransmitters to create dietary supplements that improve function and enhance health. Until now, this technology was only available under physician supervision. Tauriga's products provide the consumer direct access to the technology for the first time."
