About QuickStrip™
RDT proprietary formulation (RDMx mixture) is an orally administrable composition comprising a film forming agent that is used to effectively deliver a micronized therapeutic to allow the ready absorption of otherwise poorly soluble pharmaceuticals.
The main aim is the delivery of large therapeutic molecules such as proteins or complex molecules. The RDMx technology has the potential to be combined with numerous proprietary compositions with indications across a broad range therapeutic classes.
The RDMx mixture, once combined with the active molecule and blended into a homogenous composition, is processed using RDT proprietary production equipment and processes into QuickStrip™ according to the specifications of the active ingredient being delivered.
The thin film delivery method dramatically boosts bioavailability vs. ingested products and promotes rapid onset.
QuickStrip™ Application to the Dental Industry
The QuickStrip technology will initially have two applications in the dental industry, XyliStrip a Xylitol thin film for treating patients suffering from Xerostomia (Dry Mouth) and LQS, a Lidocaine thin film to be used professionally as an anesthetic application.
