MissionIRNewsBreaks – Lexaria Bioscience Corp.’s (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) Patented Drug Delivery Platform Could Revolutionize Nicotine Delivery


Biotechnology company and drug delivery platform innovator Lexaria Bioscience’s (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) technology is patent protected for cannabidiol and all other nonpsychoactive cannabinoids. The company also currently has patents pending for THC, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), nicotine, other psychoactive cannabinoids and other molecules. An article discussing the company reads, “Lexaria Bioscience has 10 patents granted with over 50 patents pending. Four of the granted patents focus on the delivery of nicotine. The company is not partnering with the tobacco industry. However, Bunka informed that Lexaria is exploring the potential use of its DehydraTECH technology to help people stop smoking. . . . The company’s technology has been shown to deliver nicotine to the brain quicker than traditional delivery systems. The goal for Lexaria is to put nicotine into some type of oral form to eliminate the need for inhalation and help people curb their smoking habits. DehydraTECH studies in 2018 included two animal studies that delivered pioneering results highlighting the improvements of nicotine delivery to blood plasma and across the blood-brain barrier (http://ibn.fm/QOjnR).”
