ZARS Pharma, Inc. · Salt Lake City, UT United States

ZARS Pharma makes things that could make you say "zounds!" The company's CHADD (Controlled Heat-Assisted Drug Delivery) patch technology is designed to enhance the absorption of drugs into the skin by generating its own heat. It is also developing patches and creams able to treat skin-level chronic and severe pain. Pliaglis, for example, uses lidocaine and tetracaine in a lotion anesthetic for cosmetic procedures. Synera uses the same drugs, but is delivered using the company's CHADD system. Other products include peels and patches carrying schizophrenia, anxiety, pain, dermatitis, and neuropathy meds. Pliaglis and Synera are ZARS' only approved products; the rest are in development. To read the full description, subscribe now.
