DS Healthcare Begins Shipping Its Hair Regrowth Tablets Integra(r) On May 8th

Pompano Beach, Fla., April 27, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DS Healthcare Group, Inc. (DSKX), a leading developer of personal care products, today announced that it will begin shipping its Integra® hair growth support tablets to Mexico and other international markets. This announcement comes on the heels of the Continuum launch on April 24th.

Integra® contains a unique composition of ingredients and it is the first oral tablet to contain Astressin-B and Oenothein-B. Astressin-B is a complex peptide that has shown in landmark research that it can reduce the effects of Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) involved in the stress response. CRH is associated with many other diseases and is also believed to have a direct impact on hair loss, particularly in people who are currently predisposed to hair loss and thinning hair.

"Hair loss supplement tablets have recently gained significant popularity, particularly in the European and South American markets. Our competitors produce tablets that are primarily vitamin and mineral based, and are generally known to have limited efficacy other than in people who are deficient in certain nutrients. Another alternative is finasteride therapy which carries the potential risk of adverse side effects. We view our new Integra® tablet as truly revolutionary, with an entirely new mechanism of action. We are extremely excited about its efficacy and the impact it will have to further improve results. Physicians will now be provided with this meaningful tool to help combat hair loss issues. This will also potentially be a big revenue driver for our Company and shareholders in various international markets" stated DS Healthcare President and CEO Daniel Khesin.

Fernando Tamez, M.D., CEO of Divine Skin Laboratories S.A., a wholly owned subsidiary in Mexico of DS Healthcare Group added, "our distribution is growing very rapidly and we are anticipating strong demand for a new tablet such as Integra which is expected to contribute to our nearly 30% year-over-year revenue increase. After 2 years of research and development our customers are thrilled that it's finally here and our network of dermatologists are eager and ready to begin recommending it in their practices. There has never been anything like this in our market and the acceptance of Integra will fit perfectly in our rapidly expanding and growing model in Mexico."

Clinical trials? Otherwise there's no point. Looks like nothing more than a money grabbing attempt.

Are there any trial results anywhere or none at all?

They usually claim to test it in house but I don't remember if DS ever shares that info. Oenothein-B works against DHT similar to finasteride (inhibiting 5 alpha-reductase). I wonder if orally Astressin-B will have a positive effect in conjunction. It's not being released in the US market it looks like (so eBay I guess... why did they skip the US market?).
