Missouri, the number of clandestine and mobile meth lab seizures increased by more than 50% over the
past four years.
Westport Pharmaceuticals is reaching out to local law enIorcement and narcotics oIIicers` associations
nationwide. It is offering to supply Zephrex-D
at no cost so that they can witness the results firsthand by
replicating and testing with appropriate safeguards -- the 'one pot shake and bake process conducted
by the Missouri Narcotics Officers Association using Zephrex-D
.
For other tried and true methods used by today`s meth makers, independent testing oI Zephrex-D
has
found that the traditional two-step (extraction/conversion) process converted less than one half of one
percent (0.5%) of the pseudoephedrine into meth. When more advanced extraction/conversion laboratory
methods were applied to Zephrex-D
, but it won`t work with the 'one-pot shake and bake method. Other
traditional, two-step methods that meth cooks have used for years, result in extreme cost, trouble and
frustration only to make a very tiny amount of meth, said Hemings.
'We are conIident that Iurther testing, closely mimicking the processes known to be currently employed
by clandestine laboratory operators, will produce similar results, confirming that Zephrex-D can deter
today`s domestic meth-making processes. However, given criminal resourcefulness, it is imperative for
us to collaborate with federal, state and local law enforcement on identifying opportunities for constant
improvement. As we continue our meth resistance research and innovation, we must always stay a few
steps ahead oI the criminals, said Hemings.
The meth resistant properties of Zephrex-D
are provided by Tarex
meets all Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over-the-counter (OTC) monograph
requirements for products containing pseudoephedrine HCl. Clinical testing in humans further
demonstrates the bioavailability of Zephrex-D
