Tivic Health Establishes Halal Compliance for ClearUP, FDA-Approved, Effective, Drug-Free Alternative for Sinus Pain, Pressure, and Congestion

Tivic Health® Systems, Inc. (“Tivic”, Nasdaq: TIVC), a health tech company that develops and commercializes bioelectronic medicine, today announced that the Company has completed a full internal assessment of its supply chain and has established that its ClearUP product is Halal compliant.

Of all the industries the American Halal Foundation (AHF) serves, there is probably none more critical than the pharmaceutical and supplement industry. From both a practical and principles perspective, the pharmaceutical and supplement industry is critically important to AHF. 1

There is currently a large asymmetry between the supply and demand for Halal pharmaceuticals. Although nearly 1 in every 4 consumers globally adheres to Halal, less than 5% of all pharmaceutical drugs are Halal compliant. 2 As a result, such consumers are often left with very limited options to address their health concerns.

American Halal Foundation indicates that 24% of the global population adheres to Halal and that Halal compliance is the number one influence on a Muslim consumer’s purchasing decision.3 The global Muslim population is a diverse and dynamic group that is spread across the world. As of 2023, it is estimated that there are over 2.01 billion Muslims in the world, making Islam the second-largest religion after Christianity. 4

“Today’s pharmaceuticals for pain and inflammation management lag behind consumer demand for Halal products,” said Jennifer Ernst, CEO of Tivic. “Bioelectronic medicine is a growing market that delivers effective, drug-free alternatives to pharmaceuticals and Tivic is leading the way to deliver solutions to meet the needs of all of our consumers.”

ClearUP’s non-invasive and targeted approach to the treatment of inflammatory chronic health conditions gives consumers a drug-free, ingestion-free, Halal-compliant therapeutic solution. Tivic has verified that its manufacturing and regulatory processes apply the principles of good hygiene practices and are in compliance with the rules of Islamic law. Specifically, Tivic has self-assessed full compliance with Halal requirements and has verified that all the products, product derivatives, components, packaging, and processes in its supply chain meet Halal standards of compliance.
