NovaBay Pharmaceuticals Collaborates with Harrow Health’s ImprimisRx to Promote Prescription Avenova

NovaBay Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a pharmaceutical firm focused on commercializing Avenova for the eye care market, has announced a collaboration with ImprimisRx, one of the nation's top ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical companies, to promote prescription Avenova. ImprimisRx, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harrow Health, Inc., will offer national sales, marketing, and distribution support for NovaBay's FDA-cleared 0.01% hypochlorous acid Avenova in 40 ml bottles. Avenova is a clinically approved antimicrobial lid and lash solution used to treat various chronic eye conditions.

Avenova serves a large and rapidly growing dry eye market, with 30 million Americans suffering from chronic eye diseases such as blepharitis and meibomian gland dysfunction. It is the only lid and lash spray made with NovaBay's patented pure hypochlorous acid and is suitable for daily usage. In addition, Avenova is usually prescribed by ophthalmologists and optometrists before and after cataract and Lasik procedures, making it a complementary therapy for many ImprimisRx's existing products.
