Currently in Peru, the Company sells magistral preparations, or customized compound formulations, through its exclusive agreement with Farmacia Universal.

Alixen™ 30 will target indications such as anxiety, insomnia, Parkinson’s Disease, and depression, while Alixen™ 100 will be used in the treatment of epilepsy. The Company also expects to have finished THC products available for commercial distribution in early 2022 to address additional pathologies, including chronic pain. In the interim, the Company will continue to fill high-THC magistral preparation prescriptions in partnership with Farmacia Universal and work toward listing the Company’s registered medical cannabis products in major national pharmacy chains in Peru.
