SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Innovus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Innovus Pharma” or the “Company”) (OTCQB
Venture Market: INNV), an emerging commercial-stage pharmaceutical
company that delivers safe, innovative and effective over-the-counter medicine
and consumer care products
to improve men’s and women’s health and
respiratory diseases, today announced that it has entered into an
additional agreement with current partner ACON Laboratories, Inc.
(“ACON Labs”). ACON Labs is a San Diego-based

According to WebMD, diabetes is a lifelong disease. As of 2017,
approximately 18.2 million Americans have been diagnosed with the
disease and almost one-third (approximately 5.2 million) are unaware
that they are living with it. An additional 41 million people have
pre-diabetes and those with diabetes need to manage the disease to stay
healthy; as of today, there is no cure for diabetes.

With an FDA-cleared glucometer and test strips, Innovus Pharma is now
eligible to enter reimbursement and government supply programs,
expanding the addressable market significantly for this product.

“We are proud to expand our partnership and to be working with ACON
to add the GlucoGorx™ glucose monitor, strips and lancet device for our
customers. The creation of a kit for monitoring a diabetic’s blood suger
levels expands our GlucoGorx™ clinical supplement offerings,” stated
Dr. Bassam Damaj, President and Chief Executive Officer of Innovus
Pharma. “We strongly believe our GlucoGorx™ customers will be able to
use our FDA cleared kit to monitor their blood sugar levels from the
convenience of their own homes. We are excited that Innovus Pharma is
entering this large glucose monitoring market and we look forward to
offering GlucoGorx™ and the GlucoGorx™ Kit in the first half of 2018,”
he continued.
