SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES OF CASH FLOW INFORMATION:

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these unaudited financial
statements.


                                                                    (Concluded)


<PAGE>
                              MACROCHEM CORPORATION
                     NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)  As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
     "Commission") applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, these notes are
     condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted
     accounting principles. Reference should be made to the financial statements
     and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as
     amended, for the year ended December 31, 1996.

     In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited
     financial statements reflect all adjustments which were of a normal
     recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's
     financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the three and
     nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

     The results disclosed in the Statement of Operations for the three and nine
     months ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
     results to be expected for the full year.

(2)  During 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
     Compensation". SFAS No. 123 addresses the financial accounting and
     reporting standards for stock or other equity-based compensation
     arrangements.

     The Company has elected to continue to use the intrinsic value based method
     to account for employee stock option plans and provide disclosures based on
     the fair value method in the notes to the annual financial statements as
     permitted by SFAS No. 123.

     Stock or other equity based compensation for non-employees must be
     accounted for under the fair value based method as required by SFAS No.
     123. Under this method, the equity based instrument is valued at either the
     fair value of the consideration received or equity instrument issued on the
     date of grant. The resulting compensation cost is recognized and charged to
     operations over the service period, which is usually the vesting period.

     In the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company recorded unearned
     compensation of $395,467 net of forfeitures of $268,868. The unearned
     compensation will be amortized over the remaining service period of the
     stock-based compensation arrangements. Of the $395,467, $286,071 related to
     the issuance of common stock and $109,396 related to the grant of stock
     options to consultants.

     For the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, stock-based
     compensation expense of $402,507 and $492,079, respectively, was amortized
     and charged to operations. For the three months ended September 30, 1997
     and 1996, stock based compensation expense of $289,263 and $54,908
     respectively, was amortized and charged to operations. Included in
     marketing, general and administrative expenses for the three months and
     nine months ended September 30, 1997 is stock-based compensation of
     $151,313 related to the issuance of 25,000 common shares. In addition,
     16,000 common shares were issued during the quarter ended June 30, 1997 at
     fair market value of $100,000 in consideration of financial services.

(3)  In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", which is
     effective for fiscal 1997. SFAS No. 128 requires the Company to restate
     amounts previously reported as earnings per share to comply with the
     requirements of SFAS No. 128. The Company has determined that the adoption
     of SFAS No. 128 will have no effect on previously reported earnings per
     share since the results would be anti-dilutive.

(4)  In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 129, "Disclosure of
     Information about Capital Structure", which is effective for fiscal 1997.
     SFAS No. 129 establishes the standard for disclosing information about an
     entity's capital structure. The implementation of SFAS No. 129 is not
     expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

(5)  In June 1997, the FASB issued FAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
     Income", and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
     Related Information", both of which will be effective for the Company in
     fiscal year 1999. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for the reporting and
     display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses,
     gains and losses) in a full set of general purpose financial statements.
     SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for the way that public business
     enterprises report selected information about operating segments. SFAS No.
     131 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and
     services, geographic areas, and major customers. The implementation of SFAS
     No. 130 and SFAS No. 131 is not expected to have a material effect on the
     Company's financial statements.

(6)  The Company granted 201,000 common stock options under the 1994 Equity
     Incentive Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 1997. During this
     same period, 70,000 options under the 1984 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan,
     24,000 options under the 1984 Incentive Stock Option Plan and 32,001
     options under the 1994 Equity Incentive Plan were exercised. In addition,
     during this period, 86,000 options under the 1994 Equity Incentive Plan
     were forfeited and 10,000 options expired. All options were issued with an
     exercise price at least equal to the fair market value of the underlying 
     common stock determined on the date of grant.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         ---------------------------------------------------------------
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
         ----------------------

GENERAL

     MacroChem Corporation's primary business is the development and
commercialization of transdermal drug delivery compounds and systems designed to
promote the delivery of drugs from the surface of the skin into the skin or into
the bloodstream. The Company currently derives no significant revenue from
product sales, royalties or license fees. The Company plans to develop specific
SEPA(R) formulations for use with proprietary and non-proprietary drugs
manufactured by pharmaceutical companies, and to commercialize these products
through the formation of partnerships, strategic alliances and license
agreements with those companies. In order to attract strategic partners, the
Company is conducting clinical testing of certain SEPA-enhanced drugs.

     The Company's results of operations vary significantly from year to year
and quarter to quarter, and depend, among other factors, on the signing of new
licenses and product development agreements, the timing of revenues recognized
pursuant to license agreements, the achievement of milestones by licensees and
the progress of clinical trials conducted by the licensees and the Company. The
timing of the Company's revenues may not match the timing of the Company's
associated product development expenses. To date, research and development
expenses have generally exceeded revenue in any particular period and/or fiscal
year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

     During the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Company had no
revenues as compared to $2,904 revenues during the same period in 1996. The 1996
revenue was derived from royalty income.

     Marketing, general and administrative expenses increased approximately
$328,000 (108%) over the comparable 1996 period. This increase resulted
primarily from increased stock-based compensation expense in 1997 of
approximately $219,000 and increased patent related and general legal expenses
approximating $80,000.

     Research and development expenses in the 1997 period increased
approximately $82,000 (21%) over the comparable 1996 period due primarily to an
increased effort in the management and execution of the ongoing clinical trials,
increased stock-based compensation and overall increased research costs.

     Other income increased approximately $14,000, resulting primarily from
increased rates of return on investments.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED 
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

     Total revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 were approximately
$51,000 compared to approximately $86,000 for the same period in 1996. These
revenues are primarily due to completed research contracts.

     Marketing, general and administrative expenses decreased slightly by
approximately $43,000 (2%). This decrease was due primarily to a stock-based
compensation expense reduction of approximately $121,000 offset by increased
general legal expenses of approximately $94,000.

     Research and development costs increased approximately $309,000 (26%) for
the first nine months of 1997 compared to the same period in 1996. This increase
was due primarily to an increased effort in the management and execution of the
ongoing clinical trials and overall increased research costs.

     Other income increased by approximately $13,000 (5%) due primarily to
increased rates of return on investments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Since inception, the primary source of funding for the Company's operations
has been the private and public sale of its securities, and to a lesser extent,
the licensing of its proprietary technology, government grants and research
contracts.

     The Company's working capital was reduced approximately $1 million from
December 31, 1996 to September 30, 1997. Net cash used by operations of
approximately $2.3 million was partially offset by proceeds received upon the
exercise of common stock options, warrants and unit purchase options of
approximately $1.4 million.

     Until such time as the Company obtains agreements with third-party
licensees or partners to provide funding for the Company's anticipated business
activities or the Company is able to obtain funds through the private or public
sale of its securities, the Company's working capital will be utilized to fund
its activities.

     Capital expenditures and additional patent development costs for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 aggregated approximately $73,000. The Company
expects additional capital expenditures and patent development costs for the
remainder of the year to aggregate approximately $138,000.

     The Company's long term capital requirements will depend upon numerous
factors including the progress of the Company's research and development
programs; the resources that the Company devotes to clinical testing of SEPA
enhanced compounds, proprietary manufacturing methods and advanced technologies;
the ability of the Company to enter into additional licensing arrangements or
other strategic alliances; the ability of the Company to manufacture products
under those arrangements and the demand for its products or the products of its
licensees or strategic partners if and when approved for sale by regulatory
authorities. In any event, substantial additional funds will be required before
the Company is able to generate revenues sufficient to support its long term
operations. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such
additional funds on favorable terms, if at all. The Company's inability to raise
sufficient funds could require it to delay, scale back or eliminate certain
research and development programs.

     The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents will be
sufficient to meet its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements
for at least the next twelve months. The Company's cash requirements may vary
materially from those now planned because of changes in focus and direction of
the Company's research and development programs, competitive and technical
advances, patent developments or other developments. It is not believed that
inflation will have any significant effect on the results of the Company's
operations.
