(CSE: MQ, OTCQB: MPHMF, FWB: T3F2 ), (the “Company” or “M Pharma”), announced it has incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, M Pharmaceutical USA Inc., which will be the Company’s operating entity for its production, testing and marketing of its C-103 project, the reformulated Orlistat drug recently acquired. This company will operate out of the Greater Cincinnati region.
C-103 is a novel formulation of Orlistat, patented until 2030 in the United States.
