4.  Net Loss Per Common Share

Net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during each period.  Stock options and warrants 
outstanding are excluded from the computation of net loss per share since their
effect is antidilutive.

5.  Marketing and Distribution Agreements

In January 1996 Vetlife signed an agreement with Ivy Laboratories, Inc. to
market and distribute Ivy's line of FDA approved cattle growth products and 
devices in the United States.  The newly created Vetlife Cattle Marketing Group
will begin marketing products by January 1997.  In connection with the 
agreement, Vetlife arranged for a letter of credit in the amount of $5 million
in favor of Ivy Laboratories.  The letter of credit is collateralized by 
approximately $6 million of short-term investments.

In September 1996, Vetlife signed an agreement with Elanco Animal Health, a
division of Eli Lilly and Company, whereby Vetlife became the exclusive U.S. 
supplier of Elanco's Compudose cattle growth promotant products, effective 
October 1, 1996.

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


Financial Condition and Liquidity

At September 30, 1996 the Company had cash and short-term investments of $19.5
million and net assets of $25.1 million, compared to $25.2 million and $29.8 
million, respectively, at December 31, 1995.  Working capital totaled $19.8 
million at September 30, 1996, compared to $24.4 million at December 31, 1995.
The Company has no material capital commitments.

During 1995 the Company formed a new subsidiary, Proceutics, Inc., to provide
preclinical development services to the pharmaceutical industry.  CytRx 
contributed existing property and staff resources to the venture which commenced
formal operations in January 1996.  Although Proceutics continues to provide 
services to its affiliates, revenues derived from third parties are contributing
to the Company's consolidated liquidity and capital resources.

In January 1996 Vetlife signed an agreement with Ivy Laboratories, Inc. to 
market and distribute Ivy's line of FDA approved cattle growth products and 
devices in North America.  Marketing and selling activities are not expected to
begin until January 1997, unless Ivy receives FDA approval in 1996 to market 
certain additional products currently pending agency review.  In September 1996
Vetlife signed an agreement with Elanco Animal Health, a division of Eli Lilly 
and Company, whereby Vetlife became the exclusive U.S. supplier of Elanco's 
Compudose cattle growth promotant products, effective October 1, 1996.  
Management expects that revenue generated from these arrangements will support
Vetlife's other development programs.

Given its current operating plans, management believes that cash and short-term
investments on hand, combined with investment income, revenues generated by 
Proceutics and Vetlife, and sales of Titermax, the Company's research adjuvant,
will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital needs for the next
several years.  The Company's future cash requirements are dependent upon a 
number of factors, including the progress of the Company's product development
activities, the expense of obtaining regulatory approvals, the determination of
the commercial potential of the Company's products under development and the 
status of competitive products.  The Company will consider additional sources of
funding as appropriate and available.

Results of Operations

The following table presents the breakdown of consolidated results of operations
by operating unit for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30,
1996 and 1995.  Although the subsequent discussion addresses the consolidated 
results of operations for CytRx and its subsidiaries, management believes this
presentation of net results by operating unit is important to an understanding
of the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Net sales were $787,000 during the three months ended September 30, 1996 
compared to $102,000 in 1995 and $1,605,000 during the nine months ended 
September 30, 1996 compared to $354,000 in 1995. Cost of sales during the nine
month period ended September 30, 1996 were $1,180,000 (74% of net sales) as 
compared to $32,000 (9% of net sales) in 1995.  These increases from 1995 are
primarily attributable to the activities of Proceutics, which commenced formal
operations in January.  Net sales during 1995 consist solely of sales of 
Titermax.

Investment income was $280,000 and $900,000 during the three months and nine 
months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to $474,000 and $1,425,000 for the
same periods in 1995.  The decrease from 1995 is primarily due to lower cash
and invesment balances.  At December 31, 1994 the Company had $2.5 million in
unrealized losses as a result of 1994's dramatic increase in interest rates.  By
taking advantage of strength in the bond market during the second quarter of 
1995, CytRx reduced its unrealized losses by $1.4 million, recording a non-cash
charge of $1.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 which is
shown as a separate line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of 
Operations.

Research and development expenditures in 1996 decreased by $1,143,000, or 69%,
from 1995 for the three months ended September 30, and by $3,177,000, or 61%, 
for the nine months ended September 30.  This decrease is due to a reduction in
the scope of the Company's preclinical development activities combined with a 
shift of certain personnel and capital resources to Proceutics.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in 1996 increased by $123,000, or
13%, from 1995 for the three months ended September 30, and by $217,000 or 8%,
for the nine months ended September 30.  This increase is due to higher 
administrative expenses associated with Proceutics and Vetlife's Cattle 
Marketing Group, partially offset by cost reduction measures taken by CytRx.
