NEWTOWN, Pa.(Business Wire)Quinnova Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced today the launch of Neosalus, the firstnon-steroidal anti-inflammatory prescription topical foam product for thetreatment of various types of dermatoses including atopic dermatitis and handeczema. Neosalus, uniquely formulated with Quinnovas patented ProdermTechnology TM, provides skin barrier repair, protection, and moisturization. "To treat recalcitrant skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis and handeczema, a comprehensive and long term solution is required to address theunderlying issue of a compromised skin barrier while reducing inflammation,"said Dr Christopher N Hensby, Senior Vice President of QuinnovaPharmaceuticals. First and foremost, Neosalus helps to restore a dysfunctionalskin barrier by replenishing the lost lipids, thereby decreasing trans-epidermalwater loss (TEWL).

Furthermore, Neosalus functions as a protectant to reduce thepenetration of irritants from further exacerbating the itch and scratch cycle.Finally, Neosalus has anti-inflammatory ability that helps to reduce thefrequency and severity of flare-ups, thus making it a steroid sparing andcomplementary treatment to other concomitant treatments. In addition to the therapeutic benefits of Neosalus, patients will likelyappreciate the cosmetic elegance of Proderm Technology TM. Unlike some creamsand lotions which have a tendency to leave the skin feeling greasy afterapplication, Neosalus, a water-lipid based foam, absorbs quickly, spreadseasily, and is non-greasy. Patients can resume their work and daily activitiesimmediately after applying Neosalus, thus enhancing compliance and maximizingtreatment results. Quinnova Pharmaceuticals sales force calls on dermatologists across the UnitedStates. About Quinnova Pharmaceuticals, Inc.Quinnova Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
