TYSONS CORNER, Va., March 5, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ScripsAmerica, Inc. (OTCBB:SCRC) today announced that the Company has entered into a sublicensing agreement for the marketing and distribution of RapiMed® in Canada.

Jestaw Pharmaceuticals has over 14 years experience in the Canadian pharmaceutical and OTC market, providing medication procurement and distribution services to hospitals, clinic chains and both independent and large pharmacy brands. The company has a wide network of relationships in the Canadian pharmaceutical market as a result of operating across various levels of the country's pharmacy management and logistics chain areas. ScripsAmerica intends to leverage these relationships to aggressively introduce RapiMed into multiple distribution channels.

Jestaw Pharmaceuticals is headed by Wilson A Odijie, Bsc Pharm. Rph., a seasoned executive with nearly 15 years of industry experience.

"ScripsAmerica is committed to aggressive growth and maximizing shareholder value. The company has been steadily laying the foundation for an international network of partners to introduce RapiMed into foreign markets and believe that these efforts will translate into major revenue growth and a breakout year for Scrips in 2014," Schneiderman concluded.
