Adeona Pharmaceuticals Announces Stock Repurchase Program

Ann Arbor, Michigan, April 7, 2009 -- Adeona Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (AMEX: AEN), a specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to the awareness, prevention and treatment of subclinical zinc deficiency and chronic copper toxicity in the mature population, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a Stock Repurchase Program authorizing the repurchase, from time-to-time of up to $1 million of its common stock, up to a maximum of four (4) million shares at prices of up to $5.00 per share. The Stock Repurchase Program approved by the Board of Directors on April 3, 2009 is intended to remain in effect until December 31, 2009.

Currently, Adeona has 21,193,254 shares of common stock outstanding and no preferred shares. On a fully-diluted basis, Adeona currently has 24,524,478 shares outstanding which includes 2,260,752 options having a weighted average exercise price of $1.59 per share and 1,070,472 warrants having a weighted average exercise price of $3.61 per share.

At December 31, 2008, Adeona had approximately $5.8 million in cash, no long term debt and anticipates that it spent approximately $600,000 during first quarter ended March 31, 2009. Steve H. Kanzer, C.P.A, J.D., Chairman and CEO commented, “Our stock is currently trading at a discount to cash and we have a new near-term commercialization plan as more fully described in our recently filed Form 10-K. We are optimistic about our potential to become a leading provider of proprietary products and brands that relate to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of conditions associated with subclinical zinc deficiency and chronic copper toxicity in the mature population. We believe that these conditions are highly prevalent and under-recognized in the aging population and may represent an immediate potential multi-billion dollar market for Adeona. We believe Adeona’s common stock to be a very attractive investment and hope that repurchases, if any, under the Stock Repurchase Plan will potentially improve the price of our stock for shareholders, provide additional liquidity for stockholders wishing to sell as well as enhance stockholder value by having fewer outstanding shares."

Under the program, shares may be repurchased from time-to-time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated purchases. The timing and actual number of shares purchased will depend on a variety of factors, such as price, corporate and regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities, and other market and economic conditions. Repurchases under the program will be funded from available working capital. The program may be commenced, suspended or terminated at any time, or from time-to-time at the discretion of management or the Board of Directors without prior notice. It is possible that Adeona will not purchase any shares under the Stock Repurchase Plan.

Appointment of Josie Taylor, C.P.A. as Secretary and Treasurer

On April 1, 2009, we appointed our Manager of Finance, Josie Taylor, C.P.A., to the additional positions of Secretary and Treasurer. Ms. Taylor has served as our Manager of Finance since January 2007. Prior to joining Adeona, Ms. Taylor served as Manager of Finance for Esperion Therapeutics, Inc., a publicly held company, from October 2000 to April 2004, now a division of Pfizer. From July 1998 to October 2000, Ms. Taylor worked for Arthur Andersen LLP where she was a Senior Auditor. Ms. Taylor received her B.B.A. in Accounting from University of Michigan and is a certified public accountant.

Steve H. Kanzer, C.P.A., J.D., Chairman and CEO stated, “We are grateful that Ms. Taylor has agreed to join us as an officer of Adeona. As Manager of Finance, Ms. Taylor has proven to be an extremely valuable and productive employee of Adeona. As we transition Adeona into a commercial company and initiate sales and marketing of our proprietary products and brands, the first of which is an internet-based website and product that we intend to launch in the next several days, we optimistically expect Ms. Taylor’s accounting and financial duties to increase and are grateful that she has joined our ranks as an officer of the company."

Adeona Launches CopperProof.com to Raise Awareness of the Risks of Chronic Copper Toxicity

Free Tap Water Test Card and National Survey Offered

Ann Arbor, Michigan, April 9, 2009 -- Adeona Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (AMEX: AEN), a specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to the awareness, prevention and treatment of subclinical zinc deficiency and chronic copper toxicity in the mature population, today announced that through its subsidiary, Healthmine, Inc., it has launched a new informational website dedicated to increasing awareness of the potential health effects of chronic copper toxicity, especially in the mature population.

By visiting the website, www.copperproof.com, users can view a brief informational video, review relevant literature, obtain a free* sensitive test card to test their tap water for copper and, should they wish to participate in our CopperProof National Tap Water Survey, share their levels of copper in tap water and geographically compare such levels to those of others.

Since 2003, an increasing body of research continues to implicate chronic copper exposure as a potential factor that may contribute to the progression of diseases of the mature population, especially Alzheimer’s disease.

During 2007 and 2008, Adeona sponsored and conducted an IRB-approved, prospective, observational, blinded clinical trial enrolling 90 subjects, 30 with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), 30 with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and 30 age-matched normal subjects (Normals).  The purpose of the study was to evaluate serum markers of copper status and compare these results across the three groups of patients. The results of our study indicate highly statistically significant differences in serum markers of copper status between AD and normal subjects.  We believe that the differences observed suggest that Alzheimer’s patients have impaired protection from chronic copper toxicity, which may be contributing to the progression of their disease.  Our results also appeared to indicate a subclinical zinc deficiency in AD subjects.  Adeona intends to publish these results in the future.

Steve H. Kanzer, CPA, JD, Chairman and CEO stated, “The launch of our awareness campaign today represents our first step in combating the debilitating epidemic that is Alzheimer’s disease, one of the leading contributors to our rising health care costs.  Through public awareness and education, it is our hope that susceptible persons will take the first step in practicing prevention by taking steps to avoid chronic copper exposure.  In pilot studies, we found our copper test card to be an important learning tool, allowing persons to easily visualize and comprehend an otherwise invisible threat to our maturing population.”

Adeona is collaborating with third parties to develop diagnostic products and services to assist in the diagnosis of persons at greater risk of the effects of chronic copper toxicity.  In the intermediate term, Adeona also intends to launch a series of proprietary zinc-based therapeutic products for the dietary management of conditions associated with subclinical zinc deficiency.
