              Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements
                            (Unaudited)

     
1.  Financial Statements
- ------------------------
These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 
Company's financial statements as of June 30, 1997, included in the Annual 
Report on Form 10-K.  In the  opinion of the Company, the accompanying 
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of 
normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the consolidated 
financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.  
The results of operations for the nine-month period ended March 31, 1998, 
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full 
year.  The Company's consolidated financial statements include the accounts 
of its wholly-owned subsidiary Bear Laboratories, Inc.

2.  Commitments
- ---------------
Office Lease:
The Company is obligated under an office lease commencing April 1, 1997 and 
ending on March 31, 2000, to pay $6,826.54 in monthly installments for its 
general office and research facility, which contains 8,623 sq. ft. of space.
A portion of this is subleased to others.

3.  Net Income Per Common Share
- -------------------------------
Net income (loss) per common share for the nine-month periods ended March 31,
1998 and March 31, 1997 has been computed on the basis of the weighted number
of common shares outstanding of 2,327,359 and 2,322,319 at March 31, 1998 and
1997 respectively.


Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations
- ----------------------------------------------------------
     Operations
     ----------
     The first nine months of fiscal year 1998 ending March 31, 1998 resulted
in revenue of $282,192 from operations as compared to $390 for the 
corresponding fiscal 1997 period. The revenues are from licensing Company 
drug formulations and from product sales and contract research projects. 
General and administrative expense and research and development expense
are substantially less than in 1997 due to general belt tightening.  

     Financial Position
     ------------------
     The Company went from a deficit shareholders' equity of $282,034 to a 
negative shareholders' equity of $664,574 as a result of losses for the nine 
months of $382,479. 

                                  6

     Liquidity and Capital Resources
     -------------------------------
     It is estimated that an additional $16,000 during the next three months 
will be required to fund completion or the Phase III Aztec? clinical trials. 
Other than facilities rent and salaries, there are no other commitments.  
The Company is currently pursuing additional licensing and contract 
formulation arrangements, however there is no assurance such will be 
obtained.  During the past several months the Company has undertaken a 
licensing arrangement on a nutritional supplement and contracts for 
formulation services for certain botanical products.  These contracts have 
provided monthly revenue of approximately $40,000.

     Except as indicated above, there are no planned expenditures outside 
the normal operating costs of the Company which will cause the Company to 
make any extraordinary plans for handling any cash requirements within the 
foreseeable future.

The Company currently has very limited cash resources and is not now seeking 
funding through securities sales.  It is seeking a licensing agreement for 
Aztec(r), as well as license and supply agreements which are pending 
regulatory approval in three countries.  The Company is also trying to 
obtain funding through a variety of other sources, including industry 
partners and possibly other means. The Company is currently deferring 
salaries of some of its employees.
