Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug-delivery platforms, is focused on establishing a stronghold in the $28 billion hypertension drug market. The company’s exclusive therapeutic, DehydraTECH-CBD, has shown exciting potential as an alternative to traditional cannabidiol (“CBD”) dosing methods; the proprietary treatment may offer improved and more rapid absorption of drugs into the bloodstream and brain. According to the announcement, only one FDA-approved CBD drug is currently available on the market; that drug is for pediatric epilepsy. Lexaria is working to offer the second-ever, FDA-approved CBD therapeutic, designed to treat hypertension. The market for the treatment is tremendous, with more than 116 million Americans and more than one billion adults worldwide dealing with high blood pressure, a life-threatening condition.
