TEL AVIV, Israel, May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SciSparc Ltd. (Nasdaq: SPRC) ("Company" or "SciSparc"), a specialty clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focusing on the development of therapies to treat disorders and rare diseases of the central nervous system, announced today the publication of a Japanese divisional patent.

The patent application introduces a novel pharmaceutical combination of paracetamol and palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) that may enhance pain relief and fever relief with lower doses and fewer side effects compared to paracetamol monotherapy, with potential for safer and more effective treatment for millions worldwide.

“This patent represents a significant innovation in pain management, that potentially could offer a safer alternative for patients of all ages for using this very common drug,” said Oz Adler, Chief Executive Officer of SciSparc. “This drug candidate combines paracetamol, a widely used pain reliever and fever reducer, with PEA, a natural compound that boosts the body’s endocannabinoid system. By working synergistically, the combination may reduce the required paracetamol dose, minimizing risks like liver damage while improving outcomes for acute, chronic, and neuropathic pain, as well as fever.”
