So Nutra Pharma is in the final stage of the R&D pipeline for the drug RPI-78m. It is suppose to treat numerous diseases including AMN. The problem is that their website doesn't go in to any specifics about what it exactly does for the patient. Does any one have an inside scoop on this? I've emailed them but have yet to get a response.

And here
It's available for clinical trials.
We need to publicise this, apply some pressure.
I've been following Receptopharm for a number of years. I'm not sure this is new. I think RPI-78M has been at this stage for several years, but I could be wrong. According to their SEC filings, they are woefully underfinanced. Most of the funding was personally supplied by its CEO. (I haven't checked recently though) Also, their website doesn't indicate any new press since 2010. I do hope that they are making progress on RPI-78M. But I'm not confident they are.
This one's a turkey, I am afraid. Nutra Pharma has been moribund for many years and is desperately seeking a buyer. Their only product is an oral spray with a minute dose of cobra venom. It's marketed as a pain-killer. Although there is an interesting concept that venoms can alter signaling in the nervous system for beneficial results, several trials of their compound with various neurological conditions have been inconclusive.
I found info as old as 2004. Basical claimed as a gene repositioner ? Glaxo Smith had been involved in 2005.
It looks like the release a presser , get some cash and hide. The presser is a huge swathof chronic disease fix.
Not counting on this.
Well, that's unfortunate
I and others on here have tried it and it basically doesn't work. Read me here:

It's always good to hear above new things but in this case it's old news.
Cheers anyway, Keith
My layman's guess is that new drugs will unfortunately not help people suffering from AMN. It seems like any good they create are more than offset by the side effects.
I used to follow Nutra Pharma, but as others have suggested nothing has happened for quite some time.
Sorry I never got round to replying earlier but I am one of about 12 people in a placebo controlled trial organised in London a few years ago. It didn't show any real benefits, so the idea was not pursued. Since then the drug company has come up with other ideas which are believed to be the same old mixture!
