(OTC Bulletin Board: IFMX), announced that Boothwyn Pharmacy, a visionary pharmacy that sells medication adherence services to senior independent living centers, pharmaceutical companies, managed care organizations, and consumers, will be marketing and selling Med-ePhone and Med-eMonitor products and services to its existing client base. Boothwyn has pioneered the use of pharmacist consultants to provide medication adherence services, diabetes care products, durable medical equipment, and pharmaceutical compounding.
According to Louis Micolucci, President of Boothwyn Pharmacy, "We are excited to add the Med-ePhone and Med-eMonitor products to Boothwyn's ongoing services to improve medication adherence for senior citizens in independent living centers, women with high risk pregnancies monitored through pharmaceutical company programs, and managed care patients. These products from InforMedix will significantly increase the value of the services Boothwyn already offers under existing contracts with our customers, and should allow us to expand our business under new contracts.

We intend to distribute Med-ePhone and Med-eMonitor to our existing institutional customers and consumers, and then use these products along with other services we provide to expand our customer base. As a pharmacy that has pioneered methods to improve the care of our consumer customers and our institutional clients, we look forward to advancing this important tradition through our partnership with InforMedix."
