About: Lexaria Bioscience Corp's patented drug delivery technology, DehydraTECH improves the way active pharmaceutical ingredients enter the bloodstream by promoting more effective oral delivery. DehydraTECH can increase bio-absorption with cannabinoids and nicotine by 5-10x and, in some instances with cannabinoids by as much as 27x compared to standard industry formulations, reduce the time of onset from 1-2 hours to minutes, and mask unwanted tastes. DehydraTECH has also evidenced an ability to deliver some drugs more effectively across the blood-brain barrier. The company has four reportable segments: Intellectual Property Licensing which generates maximum revenue, B2B Production, Research and Development, and Corporate. Geographically, it derives revenue from the United States and Canada.
