LOS ANGELES, July 7, 2015
/PRNewswire/ -- To aid in the ongoing battle against
tobacco-based addiction, Redwood Scientific Technologies, Inc.
(Redwood) today announced the launch of TBX-FREE: a new thin film
over-the-counter smoking cessation medication that features a key
ingredient which mimics the sensation of smoking without any of the
harmful side effects.
TBX-FREE has been designed with the intention that cigarette
addiction should not be treated with continued nicotine use just as
alcoholism should not be treated with reduced amounts of alcohol.
TBX-FREE is unique among smoking cessation products because it is
devoid of any nicotine.
The key ingredient in TBX-FREE has had its efficiency and
efficacy proven by 236 research studies that included clinical
trials. It is currently being used for the treatment of nicotine
addiction in parts of Asia and
Europe.
"We are now proud to be able to synthesize such an incredibly
proven ingredient and put it into the form of dissolvable strip
delivery technology so that people who suffer with addiction to
tobacco-based cigarettes can have over-the-counter access to a
smoking cessation treatment that does not use nicotine while
enjoying the freedom to live without fear of death," said
Jason Cardiff, President and CEO of
Redwood, who has made it his mission to combat cigarette addiction
in the wake of his mother's death from smoking-related disease.
Ben England, Founder and CEO at
FDAImports.com, LLC, will be overseeing the FDA registration
process for TBX-FREE.
"We are very excited about the idea of a new treatment to help
with nicotine addiction and look forward to working with Redwood
and their revolutionary delivery method for the treatment of
nicotine addiction," said England.
TBX-FREE will come packaged in the form of discrete thin film
containers that look identical to breath freshening strips so that
smokers can have it on hand to help quickly address cravings and
withdrawal symptoms associated with quitting smoking.
TBX-FREE will be the second product from the Redwood product
pipeline and is scheduled to launch in the third quarter of
2016.
