RYAH Dose Measuring Vaporizer Hits U.S. Dispensary Shelves


NEW YORK, July 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RYAH Medtech Inc. (“RYAH” or the “Company”), announced today that its dose-measuring smart vaporizer and proprietary cartridges have hit medical dispensary shelves in the United States. RYAH selected Sweetspot, a high-end medical dispensary located in Maryland for its flagship launch.

“We are excited to see RYAH on dispensary shelves in Maryland as a first step in our U.S. and international roll-out. Sweetspot’s compassionate ‘patient-first’ culture makes them a perfect partner for RYAH’s launch. Together, RYAH and Sweetspot aim to set a new precedent by delivering a state of the art plant-based dose-measuring regimen along with informative, customized patient consulting,” says Gregory Wagner, CEO of RYAH.

The RYAH vaporizer is a dose accuracy and control device that is able to precisely measure the amount of vapor a patient inhales. By capturing the complete plant strain lab results in conjunction with unprecedented temperature and dose control, RYAH creates a consistent and reliable vaporizing experience along with real-time, state-of-the-art data collection and analysis. The RYAH cloud solution provides doctors and patients with the ability to track which plant strains work best for their specific needs, while continuously collecting data for growers, dispensaries, pharmacies, laboratories and pharma companies to help improve the effectiveness of medical plant dosing. The data is integrated into RYAH’s big-data, AI platform, identifying correlations between plant strains and medical indications.

“We are excited to introduce this cutting edge device to our patients here in Maryland! Being able to teach patients about cannabinoid and terpene profiles in the store and then give them the ability to take this incredible device home to see what they learned in action is invaluable. This will give our patients the ability to really hone in on what specifically works for their bodies and will allow our staff to make better recommendations in the future,” says Peter Franklin, Dispensary Manager at Sweetspot.
