RAMM Pharma Corp. Receives Federal Approval and Registration of XALEX™ 10 (cannabidiol) Oral Solution

RAMM Pharma Corp. (including its wholly owned subsidiaries, the “Company” or “RAMM”) (CSE:RAMM), a leader in plant-derived cannabinoid pharmaceutical products, is pleased to announce that the Uruguayan Ministry of Public Health, (Ministerio de Salúd Publica or “MSP”) has approved and registered XALEX™ 10 (cannabidiol) oral solution, a prescription pharmaceutical formulation of highly-purified, plant-derived cannabidiol (CBD) free of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), for the treatment of refractory epilepsy. RAMM has also been granted a license expansion and approval by the Instituto de Regulación y Control de Cannabis (“IRCCA”) for additional proprietary cannabis-based products and to include certain products for veterinary use, further expanding the Company’s robust portfolio of product offerings to the Latin American market.

“The approval of XALEX™ 10 is a significant accomplishment for RAMM Pharma, offering patients another federally approved pharmaceutical CBD medicine,” stated Jack Burnett, Chief Executive Officer.

XALEX™ 10
XALEX™ 10 is a 10% plant-derived pharmaceutical formulation of pure CBD approved by the MSP as an anti-epileptic medication for the treatment of seizures associated with refractory epilepsy. The formulation was developed by RAMM following the success of the Company’s Epifractán™ 2% CBD pharmaceutical product (registered December 2017) and Epifractán™ 5% CBD pharmaceutical product (registered June 2018). Epifractán™ 2% and 5% are currently sold in Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, Peru and Paraguay and are full spectrum products, which differs from XALEX™ 10 which is a pure CBD isolate free of THC. The rigorous MSP approval process includes stability testing standards which conform to international pharmaceutical requirements for registered pharmaceutical products. These same standards will eventually be required by other countries in Latin America including Brazil and Argentina. XALEX™ 10 is expected to be available in Latin America in the coming months. RAMM’s formulation and manufacturing is conducted at its state-of-the-art GMP certified facility.

Additional Treatments Under Investigation
Pharmaceutical cannabinoid medicine has progressively gained approval in a growing number of jurisdictions globally also including the United States and the European Union. CBD is being investigated for other pathologies including chronic pain, anxiety, depression, seizures associated with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) and others.
