DirectRx is an independent pharmacy dedicated to providing patients with unparalleled, personalized pharmaceutical care. At DirectRx Pharmacy, the patient, physician and pharmacy form a circle of integrated services and coordinated care. There are no gaps in patient care between physician and pharmacy, because we believe that collaboration and communication are critical to creating favorable treatment outcomes. Our sense of urgency and commitment to unparalleled customer care makes DirectRx unique in the marketplace. We are large enough to provide the full range of pharmaceutical solutions and medications required to optimally treat chronic disease states, yet small enough to care that each patient stays on their prescribed regimen and receives the support they need throughout the course of their treatment. We believe in innovative ideas. Breaking traditional methods, DirectRx has an integration of care between the patient and the provider including a support system for the patient, from help with financial assistance to expert advice on how to manage the complicated drug regimens. DirectRx is accredited by NABP, ACHC, URAC and WBENC. Unlike other pharmacies, DirectRx is owned and operated by certified doctors of pharmacy. As a family-owned business, the company has grown to serve more than 20 states since its inception more than two decades ago. Investments in technology help to provide clients with accurate, timely orders at competitive prices. DirectRx is led by founder and CEO Santa Zawaideh, R.Ph., who has been in private, independent practice since 1980. She is the proud recipient of the Michigan Pharmacist Association`s Governor`s Award and former two-term president of the Oakland County Pharmacy Association. Vice President of Clinical Services Amanda Berishaj, Pharm. D., daughter of Zawaideh, oversees the daily operations of DirectRx, as well as the clinical operations of patients with chronic disease states.

Meyer Pharmaceuticals (Main) is a Irvine, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Acer Therapeutics is a biotech company, headquartered in Cambridge, MA, that develops repurposed and reformulated medicines for the treatment of ultra-orphan diseases with significant unmet medical needs. Acer`s lead candidate, EDVISO™ (celiprolol), is the first pharmaceutical therapy seeking approval for patients with vascular-type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS). Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a group of hereditary disorders of connective tissue with no ethnic predisposition. vEDS is a subtype characterized by severe arterial dissections, ruptures and early death. Complications are rare in childhood, but affect 25% of patients before the age of 20, and 80% by the age of 40. Median age of death is estimated to be around 50 years. Patients are diagnosed by clinical symptoms and confirmed by presence of mutations in the COL3A1 gene. There are approximately 2,000 documented patients, but prevalence could be as high as 5,000 patients in the U.S. (Pepin 2014). There are no specific pharmacological treatments for vEDS and medical intervention centers on symptomatic treatment, prophylactic measures and genetic counseling. Acer was awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA in January 2015. Acer`s second candidate, ACER-001, is the first pharmaceutical therapy being developed for patients with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD). MSUD is a devastating genetic disease – an inborn error of amino acid metabolism. Approximately 800 patients suffer from MSUD in the U.S. and 3,000 worldwide. There are no therapeutic options for MSUD and diet is not enough. Despite careful dietary management, the majority of MSUD patients have chronic neurological and social impairment, as well as life-threatening episodes of intoxication. Acer was awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA in August 2014.
