MGC Pharmaceuticals Ltd (MGC Pharma, MGC or the Company), a European based pharmaceutical company specialising in the production and development of innovative medicines for unmet medical needs, is pleased to announce that it has been granted approval for its proprietary product ArtemiC™ by the Food and Drug Authority in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (Saudi FDA).

Following the success of Phase II clinical trials[1] and European studies on its effectiveness in assisting with the recovery of patients from Covid and long-term Covid, ArtemiC™ has now been approved by the Saudi FDA as an over-the-counter (OTC) dietary supplement.

In addition, MGC Pharma appointed specialist consultancy Capital Blossom Ltd in 2022 as its agent to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Sultanate of Oman, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar.

Capital Blossom, through its joint venture collaboration with its Saudi partner have worked on obtaining the approval of the Saudi FDA.

Roby Zomer, CEO and Managing Director of MGC, commented: "We are delighted to receive Saudi FDA approval for ArtemiC™ which validates our product and follows the progress we had in USA earlier this year. We are hopeful this will materialise into commercial orders for MGC as we work closely with Capital Blossom Ltd who are specialists in this territory.

About ArtemiC™

ArtemiC™ is a clinically tested product. Developed by MGC Pharma, it incorporates GraftBio® SNEDD technology, which increases the bioavailability of ArtemiC™'s active ingredients.

In a Phase II double-blind, placebo-controlled Clinical Trial on 50 patients with COVID-19, ArtemiC™ demonstrated the following advantages:

· A full safety and efficacy profile with no drug-adverse events.

· The ability to prevent deterioration of COVID-19 patients and achieve faster clinical improvement.
