Company Now Has 17 Products Registered and Approved With The Ministry

United Cannabis Corporation (CNAB) (the ”Company” or ”United Cannabis”) today announced that Jamaica’s Ministry of Health has approved its patent-protected Prana Medicinal Sublinguals and Prana Medicinal Transdermals for use by registered medicinal cannabis patients.

The Prana Collection is the foundation of the Company’s cannabis-centric formulations, which patients have found effective in providing relief from the symptoms of arthritis, neuropathy, acute pain, joint aches, muscle tension, muscle spasms, muscle recovery, migraines, and various skin conditions.

The products will be manufactured and distributed by the Company’s Jamaican subsidiary, Cannabinoid Research & Development Limited (”CRD”). CRD is currently making preparations to produce the complete line of Prana products in Jamaica in anticipation of receiving a license from the Cannabis Licensing Authority.

Earnest Blackmon, Chief Executive Officer of United Cannabis, commented on the announcement, ”Jamaica remains at the forefront of the medical cannabis market, both domestically and as a distribution hub for other markets around the world, including Canada, the European Union and Australia. Our partners at CRD are working to establish relationships with potential distributors in those markets so that we’re ready to initiate sales as soon as we are licensed to begin production.”
