AFT Pharmaceuticals Managing Director Dr Hartley Atkinson said: “We are
excited to announce our partnership with Haiyao, an established
pharmaceutical distribution company in China.
“We anticipate the launch will occur during this calendar year and believe
that that there is a significant potential for this product in such a large
population base.”
Hayao Pharmaceuticals Chairman Mr. Wang Jianping stated: “We are
delighted to partner with AFT to bring Crystaderm to Chinese consumers. There
has been an unmet clinical demand in the Chinese acne market for a long
time. As a new acne drug and anti-infective product without hormones and
antibiotics, Crystaderm has been proven to be effective. Haiyao will carry out
the commercialization process of Crystaderm in China. We are excited about
its potential and developing our relationship with AFT.”

Officer.
