                            	(UNAUDITED)


NOTE A - Summary of Accounting Policies

The unaudited interim financial statements of Bradley Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 
(the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted 
accounting principles for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted 
accounting principles of complete financial statements.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial 
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring entries,
except for the reduction of chargeback and rebate reserves included in Manage-
ment's Discussion and Analysis) necessary to present fairly the financial 
position as of June 30, 1998 and the results of operations for the three and 
six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 and cash flows for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Further, the significant concentra-
tions contained therein relatively reflect the concentrations for the six months
ended Jume 30, 1998 and 1997.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note A of 
the Company's financial statements as contained in the Form 10-KSB for the year 
ended December 31, 1997 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  
The Form 10-KSB contains additional data and information with respect to long-
term debt, intangible assets, stock agreements, stock option plans, private 
placement of securities and reserved shares, escrow shares, chargebacks and 
rebates, related party transactions, income taxes, commitments, economic 
dependency and other items and is incorporated by reference.

The results reported for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which may be 
expected for a full year.




                     	BRADLEY PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

                 	MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

         This document may contain forward-looking statements which reflect 
management's current views of future events and operations.  These forward-
looking statements are based on assumptions and external factors, including 
assumptions relating to regulatory action, capital requirements and competing 
products.  Any changes in such assumptions or external factors could produce 
significantly different results.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On June 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of $827,000 an 
increase of $800,000 over the December 31, 1997 working capital of $27,000.  
Improvement in the Company's working capital position at June 30, 1998 was 
primarily due to operating profit and positive cash flow from operations during
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and the Company's reversal during the six 
months ended June 30, 1998 of $309,000 of reserves previously recorded for 
chargebacks, rebates, and others.

Working capital as of June 30, 1998 included a decrease of $475,000 in 
cash and cash equivalents due to primarily financing activities.  Additionally, 
current liabilities increased $225,000 from balances at December 31, 1997 as 
accounts payable and accrued expenses slightly increased.  For the six month 
period ended June 30, 1998, accounts receivable increased $1,625,000 from 
December 31, 1997 due to increased wholesaler inventory stocking which was 
prompted by the offering of slight discounts to major customers during June
1998.  This event, which also occurred in June 1997, may have the effect of
reducing revenue in the Third Quarter 1998 and may have reduced revenue in the
Third Quarter 1997.  While inventories decreased $57,000 and prepaid samples/
materials decreased $214,000 from levels existing at December 31, 1997, reflec-
ting the normal seasonality of the Company's second quarter operations.  
Additionally, prepaid expenses and other increased $145,000 due to primarily
the Company's prepayment of advertising expenses for LePont(R) Beauty Enhancer.

The United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") is currently 
reviewing cough and cold products for its Over-the-Counter ("OTC") monograph, 
and could designate the formula that is in DECONAMINE(R) as an OTC formulation.
It is not currently possible for the Company to predict how its operations and 
financial condition will be affected if the DECONAMINE(R) product line is con-
verted from prescription status to over-the-counter status.

Further, the Company is required to file and Abbreviated New Drug 
Application (ANDA) with the FDA for its DECONAMINE(R) SR product, which is 
expected to maintain the prescription status of this product beyond the final 
monograph.  The cost of this application is approximately $900,000.  The 
Company has entered into an agreement with Phoenix International to perform 
clinical studies required for the issuance of the ANDA.  As of the date of this
10-QSB, the Company has paid approximately $300,000 with respect to this pro-
ject.  The project is being deferred until regulatory and competitive circum-
stances warrant completion and submission to the FDA.  Completion of the
research and development project is subject, however, to the Company's either
generating sufficient cash flow from operations to fund the 
same or obtaining requisite financing from outside sources, of which there can
be no assurance.  Therefore, the Company cannot at this time reasonably anti-
cipate the timing of the expenditure of funds for these purposes.  The
inability of the Company to further develop and/or file the necessary ANDA for
DECONAMINE(R) SR could have material adverse effect on the Company's business.

The Company, during January 1997, began a program to repurchase in the 
open market transactions over the next twenty-four months, up to 5% of its 
outstanding Class A Common Stock.  As of July 23, 1998, the Company has 
repurchased 195,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at a total cost of 
$340,000.  These shares are held by the Company as treasury shares to be used 
for purposes deemed necessary by the Company's Board of Directors, including 
funding the Company's 401(k) Retirement Plan matching contribution.

Based upon a review of its computer operations, the Company has 
determined that its costs related to the Year 2000 problem will be insignifi-
cant. The Company has no internally developed software that it utilizes for its
operations, but uses packaged software which is compatible with Year 2000.  
The Company expects to upgrade its system in late 1998 or early 1999 and will
receive that upgrade in the normal course of business.  However, to the extent
that vendors and customers or other third parties with whom the Company 
transmits data electronically are not Year 2000 compliant, there can be no 
assurance that any resulting problems will not have a material adverse effect
on the Company.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Chargebacks and rebates are the difference between prices at which the 
Company sells its products (principally DECONAMINE(R) SR) to wholesalers and 
the sales price ultimately paid by the end-user (often governmental agencies 
and managed care buying groups) pursuant to fixed price contracts.  The Company 
records an estimate of the amount either to be charged-back to the Company or 
rebated to the end-user at the time of sale to the wholesaler.

NET SALES (net of all adjustments to sales) for the three and six months 
ended June 30, 1998 were $3,688,000 and $7,929,000, respectively, 
representing a decrease of $14,000 for the three months, and an increase of 
$555,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The net sales decrease for the
three months ending June 30, 1998 is principally due to a larger change in
chargeback reserves in the Second Quarter 1997 versus Second Quarter 1998. 
The net sales increase for six month period primarily reflects increases in the
sales of the Doak Dermatologics products of  $728,000 (25%), principally due to 
sales of LePont(R) Beauty Enhancer introduced in the Fourth Quarter 1997.
Sales of the Company's Kenwood products decreased slightly (5%), or $206,000,
due to a larger reduction in reserves in 1997 versus 1998.  The Company's 
analysis of the trend in actual chargebacks and rebates resulted in a decrease
in the percentage used to adjust gross sales to net sales for the Second Quarter
of 1998, resulting in increased net sales and profits of $235,000. The decrease
in the percentage used to adjust gross sales to net sales reflects improvements
in processing chargebacks and rebates as well as less reliance on managed care
sales.  Any future reductions of this percentage will reflect continuing and 
future analysis of this trend.  There can be no assurance that this trend will
continue.

COST OF SALES for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 were 
$1,020,000 and $2,334,000, respectively, representing an increase from the three
and six months ended June 30, 1997 of $67,000 and $527,000.   The Company's 
gross profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 was 72% 
and 71%, respectively, as compared to 74% and 75% during the three and six 
months ended June 30, 1997. This reflects a change in the mix of the Company's 
sales with greater sales of Doak products which traditionally carry a lower
gross profit percentage.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES were $2,078,000 
and $4,048,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, 
representing an increase of $12,000 (1%) and $37,000 (1%) over the three and 
six months ended June 30, 1997.  This increase reflects, primarily, savings in 
general and administrative and offset by increased investment in other areas of 
sales and marketing, and a decrease in research and development costs.  The 
Company has and will continue to institute cost saving programs during 1998.

DEPRECIATION and AMORTIZATION EXPENSES for the three and six 
months ended June 30, 1998 were $265,000 and $538,000, respectively, 
representing a decrease of $136,000 and $268,000 as compared to the three and 
six months ended June 30, 1997.  This decrease was principally due to the 
restructuring of the Berlex transaction as well as the change of estimate for
the DECONAMINE(R) amortization period.  

INTEREST EXPENSE - NET for the three and six months ended June 30, 
1998 decreased by $29,000 and $99,000 as compared to the three and six 
months ended June 30, 1997.  This decrease was principally due to renegotiating 
and payment of the outstanding debt due to Berlex and repayment of other debt 
(as discussed in detail in Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997). 

NET INCOME for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 was 
$179,000 and $583,000, respectively, representing an increase of $49,000 (38%) 
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the comparable period 
during 1997, and an increase of $240,000 (70%) for the six months ended June 
30, 1998 as compared to the comparable period during 1997.  The increase was 
principally due to an increase in net sales for the six months ended June 30, 
1998 and a decrease in depreciation and amortization and interest expense. The
increase in income tax is due to a higher pretax income, offset in part by a 
decrease in the effective income tax rate from approximately 40% in the six 
month ended June 30, 1997 to approximately 37% in the six month ended June 30,
1998 due to the benefit derived from deferred tax assets which had previously
been fully reserved.

NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE for the three months ended June 30, 
1998 on a basic and diluted basis was $.02 versus the same $.02 earnings for 
three months versus last year.  Net income per common share for the six months 
ended June 30, 1998 on a diluted basis was $.06 per common share, representing 
a $.02 increase over a comparable period in 1997.  Net income per basic common 
share was $.07, representing a $.03 increase over a comparable period in 1997.




Item 1. Legal Proceedings

	The Company is a party to various legal proceedings from time to time 
incidental to the conduct of its business, none of which are material to the
business or financial condition of the Company, except as may be disclosed in
this or prior reports.




Item 5. Other Information

On April 8, 1994, the Company was apprised by the New York State 
Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") that Doak's current leased 
manufacturing facility located on adjoining parcels at 67 Sylvester Street and
at 62 Kinkel Street, and former manufacturing facility located at 128 Magnolia
Avenue, Westbury, New York, are located in the New Cassel Industrial Area, which
had been designated by the NYSDEC on the Registry of Inactive Hazardous Waste
Sites (the "Registry").  The real property on which Doak's current manufacturing
facility is situated is owned by and leased to the Company by Dermkraft, Inc.
an entity owned by the former controlling shareholders and officers of Doak.
On February 7, 1995, the Company was apprised by the NYSDEC that the current
manufacturing facility will be excluded from the Registry.  By letter dated
April 21, 1995, the NYSDEC notified the Company that it intended to investigate
the Company's current manufacturing facility to determine if hazardous sub-
stances had previously been deposited on that property. By letter dated October
24, 1995, NYSDEC notified Dermkraft, Inc. that the current manufacturing
facility is included in or near an inactive hazardous waste site described as
"Kinkel and Sylvester Streets" and that NYSDEC intends to conduct a Preliminary
Site Assessment to study the site and immediate vicinity.  

Thereafter, by letter dated May 3, 1996 addressed to Dermkraft, Inc., the 
NYSDEC notified Dermkraft that the site at 62 Kinkel Street has been listed on
the Registry due to the presence of trichloroethylene ("TCE") in soils and 
ground water due to the use of TCE by LAKA Tools and Stamping and LAKA 
Industries, a former tenant from 1971 through 1984.  The NYSDEC documents refer
to Doak Dermatologics as the current tenant but do not refer to any activities
of Doak Dermatologics or the Company as a basis for the listing in the Registry.
The Company cannot at this time determine whether the cost associated with the 
investigation and required remediation, if any, of the current manufacturing
facility will be material.  With respect to the former manufacturing facility
on Magnolia Avenue, which remains designated by the NYSDEC as part of the 
Registry, management believes that Doak will not be obligated to contribute to
any remediation costs, if any are required.
