The principal executive offices of the Company are located at the Kells
Building, 621 Shady Retreat Road, P.O. Box 1349, Doylestown, Pennsylvania 18901.
The approximate date on which this Proxy Statement and the accompanying Proxy

At the Meeting, the following proposals will be presented to the stockholders
for approval:

(i) To elect a Board of Directors to serve for the ensuing year until the
next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their respective
successors have been duly elected and qualified.

(ii) To ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as independent
auditors for the year ending December 31, 2004.

(iii)To transact such other business as may properly come before the
Meeting and any adjournments thereof.

RECORD AND VOTING SECURITIES

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 30, 2004 (the
"Record Date") will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting. At the
close of business on such record date, the Company had 11,515,255 shares of
Common Stock, par value $.0005 per share (the "Common Stock") outstanding and
entitled to vote at the Meeting. Each outstanding share of Common Stock is
entitled to one vote. There was no other class of voting securities of the
Company outstanding on the Record Date. A majority of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock present in person or by Proxy is required for a quorum.

PROXIES AND VOTING RIGHTS

Shares of Common Stock represented by Proxies that are properly executed, duly
returned and not revoked will be voted in accordance with the instructions
contained therein. If no instructions are contained in a Proxy, the shares of
Common Stock represented thereby will be voted (i) for election as directors of
the persons who have been nominated by the Board of Directors, (ii) for
ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's
independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2004, and (iii) upon any
other matter that may properly be brought before the Meeting, in accordance with
the judgment of the person or persons voting the Proxy. The execution of a Proxy
will in no way affect a stockholder's right to attend the Meeting and to vote in
person. Any Proxy executed and returned by a stockholder may be revoked at any
time thereafter by written notice of revocation given to the Secretary of the
Company prior to the vote to be taken at the Meeting, by execution of a
subsequent Proxy that is presented at the Meeting, or by voting in person at the
Meeting, in any such case, except as to any matter or matters upon which a vote
shall have been cast pursuant to the authority conferred by such Proxy prior to
such revocation.

Broker "non-votes" and the shares of Common Stock as to which a stockholder
abstains are included for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a
quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting. A broker "non-vote"
occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a
particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power
with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial
owner.

ANNUAL REPORT PROVIDED WITH PROXY STATEMENT

Copies of the Company's Annual Report containing audited financial statements of
the Company for the year ended December 31, 2003, are being mailed together with
this Proxy Statement to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Meeting.

any commissions due Guy J. Quigley. Upon the termination of the contract for any
reason, Mr. Phillips is entitled to the remainder of his compensation owed him

REPORTS ABOUT OWNERSHIP OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK AND COMPLIANCE WITH
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 16 (a) OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
---------------------------------------------------------

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the
Company's officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a
registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission"). Officers, directors and greater than ten-percent
stockholders are required by the Commission's regulations to furnish the Company
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it, the
Company believes that, during fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 all filing
requirements applicable to its executive officers, directors, and greater than
ten-percent beneficial owners were complied with, except that Mr. Schaum did not
file a Form 4 timely on three occasions for four transactions.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
----------------------------------------------

For the year ended December 31, 2003, $889,340 was paid or payable under
founder's commission agreements between the Company and Guy J. Quigley and
Charles A. Phillips, who share a commission of 5% on sales collected, less
certain deductions, of the Company's Cold-Eeze(R) lozenge and gum products.

Certain individuals related to the Company's Chief Executive Officer are also
employees of the Company whose aggregate compensation for 2003 was $263,586 and
an aggregate of option grants to purchase 32,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock.

The Company is in the process of acquiring licenses in certain countries through
related party entities including arrangements with ScandaSystems Ltd. (UK) and
ScandaSystems Ltd. (USA) whose officer and major stockholder, respectively

-5-

are Mr. Gary Quigley, a relative of the Company's Chief Executive Officer.
Approximately $96,000 was paid or payable by the Company to such firm during
2003 and fees amounting to $273,000 have been paid to another related entity to
obtain such licenses. The Company believes that the services performed by these
firms and employees are on terms no more favorable than could have otherwise
been obtained from an unaffiliated third party.

PROPOSALS TO BE SUBMITTED FOR STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL
--------------------------------------------------

PROPOSAL 1. ELECTION OF A BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Directors of the Company are elected annually and hold office for the
ensuing year until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their
successors have been duly elected and qualified. The directors are elected by
plurality of votes cast by stockholders. The Company's by-laws state that the
number of directors constituting the entire Board of Directors shall be
determined by resolution of the Board of Directors. The number of directors
currently fixed by the Board of Directors is seven.

No proxy may be voted for more people than the number of nominees listed below.
Shares represented by all proxies received by the Board of Directors and not so
marked as to withhold authority to vote for any individual director (by writing
that individual director's name where indicated on the proxy) or for all
directors will be voted "FOR" the election of all the nominees named below
(unless one or more nominees are unable or unwilling to serve). The Board of
Directors knows of no reason why any such nominee would be unable or unwilling
to serve, but if such should be the case, proxies may be voted for the election
of substitute nominees selected by the Board of Directors.

The following table and the paragraphs following the table set forth information
regarding the current ages, terms of office and business experience of the

pharmaceutical companies including Johnson & Johnson Inc. (NYSE-JNJ) and
American Home Products Corporation (Wyeth - NYSE-WYE). Mr. Tormey also serves on

REQUIRED VOTE

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast, in person or by proxy,
at the Meeting. Votes withheld and broker non-votes are not counted toward a
nominee's total.

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors of the Company recommends a vote "FOR" the election of
each of the nominees.

MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, there were five meetings of the
Board of Directors. Each of the directors attended (or participated by
telephone) more than 75% of such meetings of the Board of Directors and
committees on which they served in 2003. During 2003, the Board of Directors
also acted by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting on one occasion.
The independent members of the Board of Directors met in executive session on
six occasions during 2003. Messrs. Schaum, Wouch and Tormey and Ms. Lewis are
deemed to be independent under NASD Rule 4200 and with such our Board of
Directors contains a majority of independent directors as required by NASD Rule
4350.

Each director is expected to make reasonable efforts to attend Board of
Directors meetings, meetings of committees of which such director is a member
and the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Five members of the Board of Directors
attended the 2003 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Company has three standing committees, the Audit Committee, Executive
Operating Committee and Compensation Committee. Prior to establishing these
Committees, the customary functions of such committees had been performed by the
entire Board of Directors. The Company does not have a designated nominating
committee.

-7-

As of December 18, 2003, decisions concerning nominees for the Board of
Directors are made by Messrs. Schaum and Wouch and Ms. Lewis, who are
independent directors, as defined under NASD Rule 4200(a)(15). The Board of
Directors does not consider a nominating committee necessary in that its
independent directors perform the same role as a nominating committee. The
Company has not adopted a formal policy with respect to minimum qualifications
for Board members. However, in making its nominations, Messrs. Schaum and Wouch
and Ms. Lewis consider, among other things, an individual's business experience,
industry experience, financial background, breadth of knowledge about issues
affecting the Company, time available for meetings and consultation regarding
Company matters and other particular skills and experience possessed by the
individual. Stockholders wishing to recommend candidates for consideration by
the Board of Directors may do so by writing to the Secretary of the Company and
providing the candidate's name, biographical data and qualifications.

The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Schaum and Wouch and Ms. Lewis.
Mr. Schaum, serves as Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee
reviews, analyzes and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors with
respect to the Company's accounting policies, controls and statements, consults
with the Company's independent public accountants, and reviews filings
containing financial information of the Company to be made with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee met five times during 2003.

The members of the Executive Operating Committee are Messrs. Quigley, Phillips
and Longo. The Executive Operating Committee possesses and exercises all the
power and authority of the Board of Directors in the management and direction of
the business and affairs of the Company, except as limited by law, and except
for the power to change the membership or to fill vacancies on the Board of
Directors or the Executive Operating Committee. The Executive Operating
Committee met two times during 2003.

The members of the Compensation Committee for 2003 were Messrs. Quigley and
Phillips. The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends the salary and other
compensation of officers and key employees of the Company, including non-cash
benefits, and designates the employees entitled to participate in the Company's
benefits plans and other arrangements, as from time to time constituted. The
Compensation Committee also administers the Company's 1997 Stock Option Plan and
recommends the terms of grants of stock options and the persons to whom such
options shall be granted in accordance with such plan. These recommendations are
then subject to approval by the full Board of Directors. The Compensation
Committee met one time during 2003. Effective, January 1, 2004, the members of
the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Schaum and Wouch and Ms. Lewis.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Outside directors receive compensation annualized at $18,000. Effective January
1, 2004, each outside director that serves on the Audit Committee will receive
compensation annualized at $27,000 and the Chairman of the Audit Committee will
receive compensation annualized at $30,000. In addition, in December 2003 the
Board of Directors approved the grant of Options to purchase 10,000 shares of
Common Stock to each of the then current outside directors under the Company's
1997 Stock Option Plan. Officers of the Company receive no compensation for
their service on the Board or on any Committee.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

The Board of Directors as a whole provides overall guidance and approval of the
Company's executive compensation program. All members of the Board participate
in the approval of each of the components of the Company's executive
compensation program described in the "Report on Executive Compensation" except
that no director who is also a Company employee participates in the approval of
their respective compensation. Messrs. Quigley and Phillips served on the
Compensation Committee during 2003. No other executive officer of the Company
served on any other committee or the compensation committee of another entity
performing similar functions during the fiscal year. There are certain related
parties of Mr. Quigley that receive compensation from the Company. See Related
Party Transactions.

The report of the Audit Committee, the report of the Compensation Committee and
the performance graph that follow shall not be deemed incorporated by reference
by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement or
future filings into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent that the Company

OTHER CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

During 2002, the Company formed a Disclosure Committee in response to Management
Certification Responsibilities under Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002. The Disclosure Committee assists the Chief Executive Officer, the
Chief Financial Officer and the Audit Committee in monitoring (1) the integrity
of the financial statements, policies, procedures and the internal financial and
disclosure controls and risks of the Company, (2) the compliance by the Company
with legal and regulatory requirements, to the extent that these policies,
procedures and controls may generate either financial or non-financial
disclosures in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Additionally, in 2002, the Company also initiated a Code of Ethics
for all employees of the Company.

Based on their evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report,
the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded
the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14 and
15d-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective. There have been
no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation,
including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and
material weaknesses.

PROCEDURES FOR CONTACTING DIRECTORS

The Company has adopted a procedure by which stockholders may send
communications as defined within Item 7(h) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange
Act to one or more members of the Board of Directors by writing to such
director(s) at their respective address listed in the Security Ownership section
of this Proxy Statement or to the whole Board of Directors care of the Corporate

REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

GENERAL

The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends the salary and other
compensation of officers and key employees of the Company. The Compensation
Committee also administers the Company's 1997 Stock Option Plan and recommends
the terms of grants of stock options and the persons to whom such options shall
be granted in accordance with such plan. These recommendations, as previously
indicated, are subject to approval by the full Board of Directors.

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

In reaching decisions regarding executive compensation, the Compensation
Committee as well as the full Board of Directors upon approval of such
recommendations, balances the total compensation package for each executive, and
makes it variable, with sales and profits attained as well as achievement of
annual and long-term goals. Competitive levels of compensation are necessary in
attracting, rewarding, motivating, and retaining qualified management. The Board
of Directors also believes that the potential for equity ownership by management
is beneficial in aligning management's and stockholders' interests in the
enhancement of stockholder value. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"), places a limit of $1,000,000 on the amount of
compensation that may be deducted by the Company in any year with respect to
certain of the Company's highest paid executives. Certain performance-based
compensation that has been approved by stockholders is not subject to the
deduction limit. If necessary, the Company may attempt to qualify certain
compensation paid to executive officers for deductibility under the Code,
including Section 162(m). However, the Company may from time to time pay
compensation to its executive officers that may not be deductible.

COMPENSATION PROGRAM

The Company has a comprehensive compensation program, which consists of cash
compensation, both fixed and variable, and equity-based compensation. Overall
compensation is predicated on industry and peer group comparisons and on
performance judgments as to the past and expected future contributions of the
individual executive officer. Specific compensation for each executive is
designed to fairly remunerate that employee of the Company for the effective
exercise of their responsibilities, their management of the business functions
for which they are responsible, their extended period of service to the Company
and their dedication and diligence in carrying out their responsibilities for
the Company.

The fixed aspect is intended to meet the requirements of the employment
contracts in effect for all of the Company's officers. See "Executive
Compensation - Employment Agreements". Employment agreements are in place to
insure the Company of consistency of leadership and the retention of qualified
executives, and to foster a spirit of employment security, which thereby
encourages decisions that will benefit long-term stockholders. Variable
compensation is based upon the entire Board of Directors adopting and approving
annually, sales and profit goals to be attained for the ensuing year.

Equity-based compensation is through options periodically granted under the 1997
Stock Option Plan. These grants are designed to directly reward and create a
proprietary interest, among the executive officers and other employees, in the
Company, which will be an incentive for these employees to work to maximize the
long-term total return to stockholders.

COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Mr. Quigley's compensation was $1,498,606 in 2003. Mr. Quigley's compensation is
based upon the factors described in the compensation program section paragraphs
above and is set forth in his employment contract. Effective January 1, 2004,
Messrs. Schaum and Wouch and Ms. Lewis comprise the Compensation Committee.

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following graph reflects a five-year comparison, calculated on a dividend
reinvested basis, of the cumulative total stockholder return on the Common Stock
of the Company, the NASDAQ Market Index, and a "peer group" index classified as
drug related products by Media General Financial Services ("MG Group Index").
The comparisons utilize an investment of $100 on January 1, 1998 for the Company
and the comparative indices, which then measure the values for each group at
December 31 of each year presented. There can be no assurance that the Company's
stock performance will continue with the same or similar trends depicted in the
following performance graph.

PROPOSAL 2. RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's
independent public auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.
Although the selection of auditors does not require ratification, the Board of
Directors has directed that the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP be
submitted to stockholders for ratification due to the significance of their

opportunity to make a statement if so desired, and will be available to respond
to appropriate questions from stockholders.

present, in person or by Proxy is required for ratification of the appointment
of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as independent auditors of the Company. An

not have the same legal effect as an "against" vote and will not be counted in
determining whether the proposal has received the requisite stockholder vote.

of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent

they are not discussed in the proxy materials unless the proponent notifies the
Company and must submit their proposals by Certified Mail - Return Receipt
Requested and that such proposal be received at the Company's principal
executive offices not later than February 11, 2005.

acting under the proxies.
