Procyon Pharmeceuticals

We are a biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing therapies for vascular disorders. Our research and development efforts are focused on therapies for stroke and other vascular disorders, using our proprietary microbubble technology to treat vascular occlusions, or blood vessel blockages, as well as the resulting ischemia, which is tissue damage caused by a reduced supply of oxygen. In addition to the brain and the lungs, blood clots can block blood flow and cause damage to other tissues in the body such as the heart, in case of coronary arterial disease, and the legs and other extremities, in case of peripheral vascular disease. We believe our development and research stage products may address significant unmet medical needs not only for stroke but also for clot-induced damage in tissues other than the brain.
