    NEEDHAM, MA, September 30, 1996 -- UroMed Corporation (NASDAQ: URMD) 
announced today that it intends to offer $50,000,000 of Convertible 
Subordinated Notes ("Notes") to certain qualified institutional buyers,

as well as the possible acquisition or in-licensing of businesses, products 
and technologies in the health care area.


    The Notes and the shares of the Company's common stock issuable upon the 
conversion thereof have not been registered under the Act and may not be 
offered or sold absent registration under the Act or an applicable exemption 
from registration requirements thereof. This communication shall not 
constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall
