Pedinol Pharmacal Inc. Announces Health Advisory For Gris-PEG® (griseofulvin Ultramicrosize) 125mg And 250mg

FARMINGDALE, NY, February 1, 2012 – Pedinol Pharmacal Inc. today announced that it is advising healthcare professionals, pharmacists and patients of a potential problem with Gris-PEG® (griseofulvin ultramicrosize) 125mg and 250mg manufactured and packaged by Novartis Consumer Health at its Lincoln, Nebraska manufacturing site. Due to problems that occurred when these products were packaged and labeled at the site, tablets from one product type may have carried over into packaging of another product. This could result in a stray pill of one medicine ending up in the bottle of another product. After a thorough analysis, Pedinol estimates the likelihood of this occurring in medication dispensed to patients is low.

Pedinol reports that they are not aware of any product mix-ups with respect to these products since 2009. Pedinol is not aware of any patient having experienced a confirmed product mix-up nor any adverse events attributable to product mix-up. Nonetheless, to ensure continued patient safety and access to these needed medicines, Pedinol advises healthcare professionals, pharmacists and patients to examine Gris-PEG® tablets in their possession and ensure that all tablets are the same. Pedinol is providing instructions on how to identify an incorrect tablet in these medicines.

“We are committed to ensuring that all healthcare professionals, pharmacists and patients are aware of this very low risk,” said Gary Strauss, CEO of Pedinol. “We are also committed to ensuring the highest standard for patients who rely on our product.”

The likelihood of finding a wrong tablet in Gris-PEG® dispensed to patients is low and patients should not be unduly alarmed. For medications already in homes and pharmacies, there are simple steps provided at www.pedinol.com and www.grispeg.com to identify affected products.

For any questions, patients should contact Pedinol Pharmacal Inc. at 1-800-733-4665 or ask their pharmacist or doctor for additional help in identifying whether there are any problems with their medication.

PEDiNOL Pharmacal, Inc. Announces New Heel Rejuvenating Kit

 

Farmingdale, NY—August 1, 2011—PEDiNOL has launched the all new Sleep-N-Heel TM Rejuvenating Kit, an at-home heel renewal kit designed to soften dry, cracked skin on the feet with a gel-pad heel sleeve, a urea based moisturizer and an exfoliating foot soap.

“One of our goals at Pedinol is to help podiatrists make treatment options as easy as possible for their patients”, says Gary Strauss, Chief Executive Officer of PEDiNOL. “The Sleep-N-Heel Kit does that by bringing three terrific products – Sleep-N-Heel TM, Exfolix TM and Ureacin®-20 Cream – together in one easy to use kit for patients. All three products will help podiatrists and their patients treat dry, cracked heels, which tend to be so prevalent in podiatric patients.”

Sleep-N-Heel™ Night Conditioning Heel Sleeves provide relief to rough or cracked heels by moisturizing dry skin at night while you rest. Exfolix provides exfoliating, cleansing and anti-bacterial benefits in one soap bar. Ureacin-20 is a thick, rich cream that dissolves dry outer layers of skin and stimulates skin cell renewal using an effective moisturizer.

PEDiNOL’s President, Richard Strauss, R.Ph, states, “We carefully chose products that we knew would work well together in this three step kit, to moisturize & rejuvenate dry, cracked skin on the feet. Exfolix removes dry, rough skin with its exfoliating action, Ureacin-20 moisturizes and rehydrates the skin and Sleep-N-Heel helps to maintain smooth, healthy skin.”

PEDiNOL Pharmacal, Inc. Introduces Fungoid®-D (tolnaftate 1%) Antifungal Cream

Farmingdale, NY—August 1, 2011—PEDiNOL combines the strength of tolnaftate 1% with a moisturizer in one tube to create Fungoid-D antifungal cream, an effective solution to athlete’s foot and dry skin.

There are many ways to treat athlete’s foot, but results may not always be lasting because it may reoccur if the fungus is not completely stopped. In order to solve this problem, PEDiNOL developed Fungoid-D, an everyday cream with the triple advantage of treating athlete’s foot, preventing its reoccurrence and moisturizing feet, all at once.

“From working with Podiatrists, we know that tinea pedis is a painful and embarrassing condition that often does not disappear with one treatment”, states Gary Strauss, Chief Executive Officer of PEDiNOL. “Prevention is a major factor when it comes to managing patients’ athlete’s foot. When used daily, Fungoid-D prevents and clears up most athlete’s foot infections, while smoothing dry skin on the feet.”

There are many uncomfortable side effects that are associated with athlete’s foot, including dry, cracked skin. Unlike most antifungal products currently available on the market, Fungoid-D moisturizes dry skin while treating athlete’s foot, leaving feet feeling soft and refreshed.

PEDiNOL’s President, Richard Strauss, RPh, is very proud of this product launch, saying, “PEDiNOL has always been known to provide Podiatrists with effective antifungal and moisturizing products. Many patients struggle with both athlete’s foot and dry skin. I’m excited to offer them an over-the-counter antifungal product, which treats both of these problems.”

Fungoid-D is available in a 4 oz. tube. To learn more about Fungoid-D antifungal cream, or to place an order, visit www.pedinol.com or call 1-800-PEDiNOL (733-4665).

PEDiNOL Pharmacal, Inc. Launches Exfolix Foot Soap

Farmingdale, NYJune 23, 2011PEDiNOL has announced the introduction of Exfolix foot soap, designed to exfoliate and cleanse dry, rough skin on the feet.

“As a podiatry company, PEDiNOL is always looking for new and innovative products that will bring value to podiatrists and their patients”, states Gary Strauss, Chief Executive Officer of PEDiNOL. “Exfolix foot soap fits that bill. Podiatry patients will benefit from the exfoliating, cleansing and antibacterial action of Exfolix.”

Exfoliation is the key to smooth healthy skin because it gets rid of dead skin cells on the outer layer of skin and makes skin softer and smoother. An effective yet gentle soap, Exfolix offers an excellent alternative to traditional exfoliating methods. Unlike a pumice stone, Exfolix provides exfoliating, cleansing and antibacterial benefits in one soap bar.

 “We are known for our foot care products, so it only makes sense to develop soap specially designed just for the feet”, says President of PEDiNOL, Richard Strauss, RPh. “Exfolix is a great addition to our current line of foot care products and can be used as a complement to many of our existing moisturizing products”.

Natural ingredients such as orange peel oil and furocoumarin free bergamot oil, give Exfolix a fresh citrus scent that all podiatry patients will love. Exfolix works great on its own, and can also be used with one of PEDiNOL’s specialty moisturizers, such as Lactinol® HX, Ureacin® Creme and Lotion, or Hydrisinol® Creme and Lotion. To learn more about Exfolix foot soap, or to place an order, visit our website at www.pedinol.com or call us at 1-800-PEDiNOL (733-4665).

PEDiNOL Pharmacal Inc. Launches New Sleep-N-Heel Night Conditioning Heel Sleeves

 

Farmingdale, NY—May 20, 2011—PEDiNOL has launched a gel heel sleeve, Sleep-N-Heel Night Conditioning Heel Sleeves, to provide soothing relief to rough cracked heels by moisturizing dry skin while resting.

Rough or cracked heels are common foot problems which result from various factors and circumstances. Dry, cracked heels are unattractive and embarrassing, especially for those who love to wear sandals or open-backed shoes. PEDiNOL developed Sleep-N-Heel Night Conditioning Heel Sleeves, which are designed to smooth & soften rough, dry skin on feet, just in time for the summer months.

 

Gary Strauss, CEO of PEDiNOL, explains “Everyone wants smooth, soft heels, but not everyone has the time, energy or money to care for their feet properly. Now, PEDiNOL has made achieving soft heels incredibly easy - just slide on a pair of Sleep-N-Heel Night Conditioning Heels Sleeves before bed and let them moisturize and soften your skin while you rest. It’s that simple.”

 

Each Sleep-N-Heel Night Conditioning Heel Sleeve is molded with a soft, fragrance-free pad lining that comfortably conforms to the shape of the heel. Using a patent-pending technology, this proprietary triglyceride polymer gel is designed to slowly release a unique blend of natural moisturizers. Enriching essential oils- such as coconut, jojoba and olive oil- provide deep conditioning and continuous hydration to impart needed moisture, while vitamin E and shea butter supply a potent source of antioxidants and other nutrients that promote healthy skin renewal and rejuvenate the skin’s appearance.

 

“Sleep-N-Heel Night Conditioning Heel Sleeves provide a significant opportunity to offer podiatrists and their patients an innovative solution for the widespread problem of dry skin”, says PEDiNOL’s President, Richard Strauss, RPh. “When worn regularly, they can prevent or reverse cracks and calluses as well as preserve the comfort and cosmetic advantages of soft, smooth heels.”


Sleep-N-Heel Night Conditioning Heels Sleeves are dermatologist tested, hypoallergenic, latex-free and mineral oil-free. They are effective and reusable for up to 40 treatments. Order a pair today by visiting www.pedinol.com or by calling 1-800-PEDiNOL. Don’t forget to use free shipping code SNHFS when you checkout.

Dr. Goldwag founded PEDiNOL with the idea of providing safe and effective products that specifically address the needs of podiatrists and their patients. To this day, Dr. Goldwag’s idea remains PEDiNOL’s goal.

 

“Dr. Goldwag had a unique vision,” stated Richard Strauss, R.Ph., President of PEDiNOL. “It has always been PEDiNOL’s mission to continue to fulfill Dr. Goldwag’s vision and bring quality products to the podiatric profession.”

FARMINGDALE, NY—July 1, 2010—PEDiNOL Pharmacal Inc. is proud to unveil its newest line of products, PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag Professional Blister Care dressings. These dressings are specially made with a proprietary hydrocolloid adhesive formulation. 

 

PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag, sterile and latex free dressings, are designed to be flexible and conformable, easily fitting difficult areas of the feet, heels and toes. They provide a waterproof, mechanical barrier to external contaminants, which, if left untreated, can cause infection. Once applied over blisters, the dressings create a moist wound environment which facilitates the healing process of blisters better than conventional bandages. The dressings, which may be left on for up to 7 days, provides around the clock blister care and skin protection.

 

 “Although blisters may not be the primary reason for a patient to visit their podiatrist, they do often come up in conversation as a secondary ailment”, states Gary Strauss, CEO of PEDiNOL. “Providing specialized products for podiatrists is what our company prides itself on. PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag dressings offer an effective blister care solution which both podiatrists, and their patients, will benefit from.”       

 

PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag dressings are designed to be patient friendly, allowing podiatrists to provide personalized care for their patient’s blisters. Podiatrists can mix and match the amount of toe and heel dressings they recommend to continue patient care and therapy, according to their patient’s individual needs. Toe and heel dressings will be available for continued patient care exclusively through their foot doctor.

 

PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag Blister Care Kit is specifically designed for continued at-home patient care and contains 6 heel dressings and 4 toe dressings. PEDiNOL’s Nourishing Cream, which is formulated with Vitamin E and A to help promote healthy skin, is also provided in the kit. Podiatrists may purchase the Blister Care Kit online at www.pedinol.com and direct patients to do the same.

 

Richard Strauss, R.Ph., President of PEDiNOL, is very confident in the new blister care line stating, “I'm certain customers will be impressed with both the functionality and efficacy of PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag dressings. Podiatrists are seeing the value of continuing patient care with this product and the positive effect it has on patient convenience and satisfaction.”

 

PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag Dressings are available exclusively from PEDiNOL Pharmacal, Inc. Podiatrists may place an order or learn more about PEDiNOL’s Hydro ARMOR Ag Professional Blister Care Product Line by calling 1-800-PEDiNOL or contacting their PEDiNOL sales representative.

FARMINGDALE, NY—October 12, 2009—PEDiNOL Pharmacal Inc. announced that it has received FDA approval for Nalfon (fenoprofen calcium) 400mg capsules.  Nalfon 400mg capsules are indicated for the relief of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis in adults with a recommended dose is 400 to 600 mg given orally, 3 or 4 times a day.

 

Nalfon 400mg capsules offer podiatrists and their patients an improvement in Nalfon’s dosing. One capsule instead of two means there are fewer capsules for the patient to take daily.

 

“Nalfon 400mg is another wonderful addition to PEDiNOL’s family of podiatry products,” stated Richard Strauss, R.Ph., President of PEDiNOL. “Our mission is to serve podiatrists. We value our customer’s input so when podiatrists asked for a 400mg capsule for improved dosing, we started development on it.”

 

PEDiNOL plans to launch Nalfon 400mg in early 2010. Nalfon 400mg will be available in 90 count bottles. Nalfon 200mg capsules are also available for dosing flexibility.

About Nalfon:

 

Nalfon is indicated for relief of mild to moderate pain in adults and for relief of the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.

 

NSAIDs may cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may increase with duration of use. Patients with cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease may be at greater risk.  Nalfon is contraindicated for the treatment of peri-operative pain in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.  NSAIDs cause an increased risk of serious gastrointestinal adverse events including bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of stomach or intestines, which can be fatal. These events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms. Elderly patients are at greater risk for serious gastrointestinal events.

 

Nalfon is contraindicated in patients who have shown hypersensitivity to fenoprofen calcium.  Nalfon should not be given to patients who have experienced asthma, urticaria, or allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs. Severe, rarely fatal, anaphylactic-like reactions to NSAIDs have been reported in such patients. Nalfon is contraindicated for the treatment of peri-operative pain in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.

Nalfon is contraindicated in patients with a history of significantly impaired renal function.
