$TAUG Brands Topical Medical Creams as Topicanna

Tauriga Sciences Inc. Progresses Towards Launch of Its Topical Medicinal Cannabis Creams Branded as Topicanna

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 25, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (TAUG) (“Tauriga” or “the Company”), a diversified life sciences company with interests in the natural wellness sector and in developing a proprietary synthetic biology platform technology, today updated shareholders about the upcoming launch of its proprietary topical medicinal cannabis creams to be branded as Topicanna. Several steps remain until an official launch is practical, however management is working diligently to complete these important steps; such steps are crucial to both the long term success and viability of the product line. These steps include: qualifying and testing oil with high cannabidiol (CBD) content from licensed suppliers, selecting the oil and scaling up the manufacturing process. The Company is hopeful that it can successfully launch its Topicanna product line within the next 60 days.

Many people who have used topical cannabis creams have reported decreased musculoskeletal pain without narcotic effects. The Company is currently developing two distinct Topicanna products: one which will contain ingredients to better penetrate to the joints, and one that will contain ingredients that have been successfully used for dermatological conditions. Tauriga’s products will be offered in the United States (in compliance with all applicable medical marijuana regulations) and potentially in Japan pursuant to the recently announced MOU with Tokyo-based iFLOW Ltd (“iFLOW”). Medical marijuana law in Japan requires that products use oil that has been extracted from the stalk of the cannabis plant and that is necessarily higher in CBD and low in THC, hence providing potential wellness and healing properties without psychoactive effects.

Tauriga is also finalizing its formulation for its CannaCaviar soft gels using high-CBD, low-THC oil that has been extracted from the stalk of the cannabis plant. CannaCaviar is included in the recently announced MOU.

The Company is genuinely excited to complete these above-mentioned final steps that precede the launch of its Topicanna and soft gel products. The Company will take all necessary steps to ensure that it is always in compliance with the governing laws of each state, country and jurisdiction in which it plans to market its topical medicinal cannabis line. The Company plans to issue an additional press release to shareholders, once the product is complete and ready for launch.

In addition to the planned launch of the Topicanna and CannaCaviar lines, Tauriga is developing an e-commerce website (www.taurigastore.com) to sell its non-cannabis containing line of natural wellness dietary supplements. These natural supplements include IndiCalm, a relaxant and anxiolytic based on L-theanine; ClearNaze, a natural decongestant without stimulant or drowsiness effects; Satietiva, an amino acid-based appetite suppressant; and EndoCannabinoid Omega-3 Support (or MendOCan), a highly pure, potent and palatable Omega 3 supplement. Interested customers will be able to purchase these cannabis-free products online when the site is launched before the end of the year.
