Transdermal Delivery Solutions and MHC Medical Products announce license for Penetran+Plus topical pain reliever

With the acquisition of Penetran-Plus, MHC expands into the OTC pain relief market.

"We are pleased to announce the finalization of our agreement for this first product with the team at MHC,” said Kenneth Kirby, President of TDSC. “MHC is the manufacturer of one of the country’s fastest growing lines of branded medical devices and other consumer healthcare products including the EasyTouch brand of insulin syringes and blood glucose meters, HealthPro blood glucose meters, and SureLife blood pressure monitors.” With the acquisition of Penetran-Plus, MHC is expanding into the over-the-counter pain relief market.

Up until this time, Penetran+Plus had limited regional distribution. “We are pleased and honored to have the MHC team acquire the product license and expand the distribution,” said Kirby. Penetran+Plus is a topical analgesic gel that is marketed as an over-the-counter remedy for temporary relief of minor aches and pains, bruises and strains. The product was designed with a pleasant natural lemon oil fragrance, a non-sticky formula and has been successfully tested for pains associated with arthritis in a double blind study against placebo which was published in a peer-reviewed journal. The product label has been reviewed by the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research Office of Unapproved Drugs and Labeling Compliance (OUDLC), Over the Counter Branch and found to be in compliance with the OTC Monograph for Topical Pain Relief.
