Anyone have any issues with the messaging for a medical product with no proven success? "Use our product because the other option is poison!! Also we're only in phase one!!!"

Thank you for your comment.

We have an investigational product, which means it can only be used in the context of a clinical trial.

All products that eventually reach the clinic have to go through this step and rigorous testing before being available to physicians and patients.
