ST. LOUIS--June 21, 2005--GenoMed Inc.-- ("the Company" or "GenoMed") (National Quotation Bureau's Pink Sheets Symbol: GMED) a St. Louis, Missouri-based Next Generation Disease Management company, announced today that its method to prevent up to 90% of kidney dialysis was featured in the latest version of NEPHROLOGY Incite, a newsletter for kidney patients at www.IKIDNEY.com.
Dr. David Moskowitz, GenoMed's CEO and Chief Medical Officer, was interviewed about his work on angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE). Said Dr. Moskowitz, "Using higher than usual doses of certain ACE inhibitors can actually reverse chronic kidney failure. But this approach must be started while a person's serum creatinine is below 2. A normal serum creatinine is less than 1.5. Patients aren't referred to a kidney specialist until their creatinine is close to 3. So it's imperative that patients learn about this before it's too late for them."
