Mr. Mark D'Souza reports

LABOPHARM'S NOVEL TRAZODONE FORMULATION SUBJECT OF PUBLICATION IN PEER-REVIEWED MEDICAL JOURNAL

An article has been published in the international journal of neuropsychiatric medicine, CNS Spectrums October, 2009, issue, citing the potential benefit of Labopharm Inc.'s novel trazodone formulation, which contains Contramid. Labopharm's Contramid is the clinically validated proprietary technology that controls the release of active substances from oral medications to optimize drug delivery.

The article is authored by Dr. Stephen Stahl, adjunct professor of psychiatry, University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, as part of a series entitled, "Trends in psychopharmacology, the mechanism of action of trazodone: a multifunctional drug.

"Although trazodone has traditionally been used as a low-dose hypnotic, a new controlled-release formulation that has the potential to improve the tolerability of high doses may provide an opportunity to revisit this multifunctional drug as an antidepressant as well," writes Dr. Stahl in the article's abstract.
