Phytopharm plc
Phytopharm is hunting for better drugs. The company struck a deal with Unilever in late 2004 to develop a slimming aid based on the African cactus hoodia, used in Africa to stave off hunger during hunting trips. This developer of botanical pharmaceuticals concentrates on four drug-discovery areas -- obesity and metabolic disease, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and dermatology. In addition, Phytopharm markets two veterinary dermatology products in the UK.
