"TBI Miracle Drug" profiled in US pharmaceutical magazin

A U.S. magazine called Pharmaceutical Formulation & Quality (circulation to 20,000 senior pharmaceutical executives throughout the US and Canada) has just published an article explaining cyclosporine and its potential as a traumatic brain injury (TBI) pharmaceutical. The article, entitled "Cyclosporine - TBI's Miracle Drug," is in the magazine's August/September 2011 issue. Subtitled: "An accidental discovery about 20 years ago has led to a cyclosporine pharmaceutical on the threshold of approval". The article explains the history of NeuroVive's initial research and the reasons why cyclosporine has such positive impact on TBI and reperfusion injury in myocardial infarction. The article can be read online at the magazine's website (www.pharmaquality.com).

The article was authored by Steve Campbell, a writer and communication consultant in Vancouver, B.C., who writes for and about pharmaceutical and scientific research, products, and biotech companies. NeuroVive´s CSO Eskil Elmér reviewed the article to ensure scientific accuracy.
