MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, April 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioSyent Inc. (“BioSyent”, TSX Venture: RX) is pleased to announce that FeraMAX^® is the #1 recommended iron supplement brand in Canada, based on a national survey of Canadian pharmacists and physicians⁽¹⁾. This year marks the ninth consecutive year that FeraMAX^® has been awarded this vote of confidence from physicians and pharmacists across Canada, including those professionals in Quebec.

The annual Survey on OTC Counselling and Recommendations is an important pharmaceutical industry indicator which tracks pharmacist and physician counselling patterns for over-the-counter (OTC) products in Canada. The survey was fielded between October 2023 and January 2024 by EnsembleIQ Research and Innovation: Pharmacy Practice + Business, The Medical Post, Profession Santé, CanadianHealthcareNetwork.ca, and ProfessionSanté.ca. This is the only national survey to research the role of Canadian pharmacists and physicians as counsellors and advisors in non-prescription products.
