Stick pack format
PharmaLinea has introduced a white label on-the-go stick pack format for its >Your< prediabetiq supplement, featuring Qgluco, a patented plant-based blood sugar control ingredient, and Chromium.
The new orostick format complements the >Your< prediabetiq capsules launched last year amid increasing consumer interest in glucose control.
According to Matevž Ambrožič, PharmaLinea's marketing and PR Director, the launch of the capsules has been the most significant in his tenure, driven by the growing population affected by diabetes and prediabetes, as well as heightened interest in glucose management facilitated by continuous glucose monitors (CGMs).
