Zynex Achieves Compound Pharmacy License Approval in 36 States


LONE TREE, CO--(Marketwired - Jul 15, 2014) - Zynex, Inc. (OTCQB: ZYXI), an innovative medical technology company specializing in the manufacture and sale of non-invasive medical devices for pain management, stroke rehabilitation, neurological diagnostics, and compound pharmacy, announced today that it has attained compound pharmacy licensing approval in seventeen additional states bringing the total to thirty-six approvals.

Zynex commenced operations of its in-house, non-sterile compound pharmacy in December 2013, providing topical and transdermal pain creams. Zynex-branded pain creams, along with electrotherapy products, offer the market a unique full service, conservative pain management solution. With the recent addition of new states, Zynex is now marketing compound pharmacy pain creams, across 36 states. Zynex estimates that the annual US market for topical and transdermal pain, scar and wound creams represents a $2 billion market opportunity. Compounded pain cream prescribers and specialties include pain management doctors and physical therapists in the rehabilitation segment, anesthesiology, podiatry, orthopedics, rheumatology, and family practices, which are the same target markets for Zynex electrotherapy devices.

Thomas Sandgaard, CEO of Zynex added, "We are very pleased with the progress of our national rollout for the compound pharmacy. The new states nearly double our geographic footprint and we are now seeing a meaningful contribution from this segment, with over 10% of our revenue coming in from compound pharmacy sales during the second quarter. Our efforts to re-position the company for growth over the past several quarters are now showing encouraging results."
