John Easton, Chief Executive Officer of Ixora Bio Medical, stated, "The impending launch of ''Ixora(TM) for Women'' represents a major milestone for us.

These statistics are based on a national sampling of women ages 18-59."
Mr. Easton added, "In preparation for the launch, Ixora has assembled a group of first class professionals including a medical advisory board as well as branding, marketing and public relations teams. Ixora Bio Medical has established a network of sales outlets throughout North America for its ''Ixora(TM) for Women'' and has contracted manufacturing to a leading New Jersey based FDA approved GMP manufacturing facility."
