NOTE B - INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate used is based on the estimated effective tax rate for
the full year and exceeds the statutory federal tax rate primarily as a
result of the amortization of product lines and trade names which is not
deductible for tax purposes.

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Net sales for the second quarter ended June 30, 1998 were $3.6 million, an
increase of $369 thousand, compared to $3.3 million for the comparable
period of 1997.  The net sales increase for the second quarter reflects an
increase of $328 thousand in net sales of AsthmaHaler.  Total year-to-date
sales of the Company were $6.9 million, which is relatively flat for the
comparable year-to-date period.   However, the net sales for the first six
months reflect the continued erosion of a specific group of the Company's
brands due to trade destocking and competitive pressure.  Sales from this
group of brands have declined from $3.5 million in the first six months of
1995 to $2.3 million in the first six months of 1998.  However, total sales
of the Company were relatively flat for the same periods, $7.0 million and
$6.9 million, respectively.  Increased sales from products the Company
markets under agreements with three pharmaceutical firms and sales from the
Company's other brands have largely offset this sales decline since 1995.

                                     6
<PAGE>


Cost of goods sold for the second quarter ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was
$1.7 million in each period, representing 46% and 53% of net sales in their
respective periods.  Year-to-date cost of goods sold was $3.2 million, or
46% of net sales in 1998, compared to $3.3 million, or 49% of net sales for
1997.  The decrease in the cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, is
a result of the change in mix-of-products sold and lower product costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three- and six-month
periods of 1998 were $1.6 and $3.5 million, an increase of $371 and $751
thousand compared to the respective 1997 periods. The increase is primarily
due to an increase in Benzedrex and Albolene advertising costs along with an
increase in marketing costs associated with the products under the Company's
sales and marketing agreements.  Selling, general and administrative
expenses, as a percentage of sales, may fluctuate quarter to quarter based
upon the timing of these expenditures and the level of sales within a quarter.

The Company, at December 31, 1997, had a net operating loss carryforward for
federal income tax purposes of approximately $5.7 million which may be used
to offset future taxable income.  These loss carryforwards expire in the
years 2005 through 2008.  The net loss for the second quarter includes $296
thousand of tax expense.  Net income for the year includes $585 thousand in
tax benefit.  The effective tax rate used is based on the estimated
effective tax rate for the full year and exceeds the statutory federal tax
rate primarily as a result of the amortization of product lines and trade
names which is not deductible for tax purposes.  The Company has net
deferred tax assets of $1.3 million in its condensed consolidated balance
sheet as of June 30, 1998, which is primarily made up of two items, net
operating loss carryforwards and future deductible expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of $8.6 million.  Working
capital was provided by operations and may also be provided by the periodic
use of its revolving credit facility.  The revolving credit facility has a
maximum borrowing limit of $3.0 million and terminates on June 30, 2000,
unless extended.  The Company had no bank debt outstanding at June 30, 1998.
Extended payment date terms that are consistent with standard industry
practice and are offered to the Company's customers under marketing
programs create seasonal changes in the Company's cash flow.  These extended
payment programs are directly related to the seasonal promotion of the
Company's cough and cold brands.

As of June 30, 1998, the Company's primary cash requirements are for its
normal working capital requirements as the Company normally incurs only a
limited amount of capital expenditures. Management believes that cash flow
from operations and current and future borrowing capacity will be sufficient
to fund the Company's operating and capital requirements for the foreseeable
future.
