NEUROCHEM PROVIDES INFORMATION ON CASH POSITION

LAVAL, CANADA, August 28, 2007 — Following the issuance of a press release on August 26, 2007, announcing results from the tramiprosate (ALZHEMED™) North American Phase III clinical trial and the subsequent conference call on August 27, 2007, Neurochem Inc. (NASDAQ: NRMX; TSX: NRM) wishes to re-iterate that while it does not provide guidance regarding financial matters, in light of circumstances surrounding the announcement and subsequent call, based on the unaudited financial statements of the Company as at July 31, 2007, the cash position was approximately US$80 million.

The Company believes that while its cash reserves should support current operations for 15 to 18 months, the recommendations of the newly established Special Advisory Board for tramiprosate (ALZHEMED™) and other upcoming milestone events make it impossible to predict with certainty the Company’s cash requirements at any point in time.
