Odyssey Health (OTC: ODYY) early last year acquired PRV-002, a drug candidate for concussed patients to mitigate both short-term and long-term consequences of concussion. Concussion or mTBI “is caused by a jolt, blow or force to the head that changes the brain’s function. This change often results in myriad consequences ranging from emotional and somatic changes to cognitive impairment and physical symptoms… In most cases, concussion symptoms resolve within a few days or weeks as the damaged pathways rebuild and strengthen through repetition, use and cleanup of cell debris. However, there has been growing concern that mTBI may be associated with long-term consequences, particularly due to repeated or multiple head impacts,” explains a recent article. “Odyssey has so far evidenced, through animal studies, that PRV-002 can easily cross the blood-brain barrier to rapidly eliminate swelling, oxidative stress and inflammation caused by concussion while simultaneously restoring proper blood flow. The drug is intended to be administered immediately after a concussive episode, effectively mitigating the effects a blow or jolt might have on the brain and its functions.”
