We are the only company that commercially developed an endogenous signalling molecule in gas form for human use. The manufacture ofa pharmaceutical gas requires expertise that few companies can begin to match. Separately, we manufacture the complementary delivery system that delivers this gas. This specialized manufacturing process results in an integrated drug-delivery system for patients.

We are investigating additional uses for nitric oxide (NO).1-4 We have discovered that this naturally occuring molecule – when properly delivered in low doses – may demonstrate several essential critical care benefits. We are also investigating the therapeutic potential of terlipressin, a promising compound for treating hepatorenal syndrom (HRS) Type 1, a condition that results in acute kidney failure in patients with late-stage liver cirrhosis.5 IK-5001 is a potential treatment for preventing cardiace remodeling and subsequent congestive heart failure following acute myocardial infarcation.6
