(Marketwired) -- 03/03/14 -- Zynex, Inc. (OTCQB: ZYXI), a 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 its subsidiary Zynex Medical, recently received its 19th state license for its non-sterile compound pharmacy.
Zynex Medical's compound pharmacy sells non-sterile topical and transdermal pain creams through its existing sales force. The market for pain cream has many similarities to the electrotherapy business, requiring a doctor's prescription and providing a recurring revenue stream. Zynex believes the market for topical and transdermal pain cream represents a $2 billion opportunity in the United States and the Company intends to be licensed in all 50 states by mid to late 2014.
Thomas Sandgaard, Zynex President and CEO, commented, "Compounded, non-sterile topical and transdermal pain creams complement our existing electrotherapy products and further diversify our offerings, allowing us to be a full service, non-invasive pain management company. We introduced topical and transdermal pain creams to our existing Zynex Medical electrotherapy sales force late last year, targeting in particular pain management doctors and physical therapists in the rehabilitation segment, where we already have a strong market presence. We believe this is a great opportunity for revenue growth beyond our traditional electrotherapy products."
