IM Healthscience’s FDgard hits stores nationwide

 

SAN DIEGO — IM HealthScience announced Monday that its treatment for functional dyspepsia (FD, characterized by persistent or recurring indigestion), FDGard is now nationally available in the digestive aisle at most Walgreens and CVS Pharmacy stores. 

 

FDGard uses caraway and peppermint oils to manage FD among the one-in-six adults estimated to suffer from the condition. 

 

“The gastroenterologists who have heard of FDgard welcome its arrival and look forward to helping their FD patients with this new option," IM HealthScience chief medical advisor Michael S. Epstein said. “A strong body of science supports this combination product.”
