WELCOME TO THE CLEAR GENERATION. DayClear® | Media Kit 2015-2016 | HISTORY & BACKGROUND DayClear® is the clear choice in the over-the-counter (OTC) medicine market. The foundation of the brand is its commitment to providing reliable relief, free of unnecessary ingredients. The clear formula is power-packed with essential ingredients to deliver effective relief from allergy, sinus, cough, cold & flu symptoms. The DayClear® formula is also free of gluten, sugar, dye, alcohol, acetaminophen and artificial flavoring, leaving it free and clear of unnecessary additives or ingredients that may have potentially harmful effects. WHO WE ARE: GM Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (founder of DayClear®) has provided effective and trusted prescription medications, over-the-counter medications and nutritional supplements since 1991. Its founder, Odes Mitchell, brings a multi-faceted history of pharmaceutical experience to the company, ensuring that each product is expertly crafted for optimal use. Built on a commitment to providing trusted, affordable relief, GM Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is proud to introduce the DayClear® brand to the OTC medicine market. OUR STORY: Creating the DayClear® Formula Odes Mitchell was already active in the pharmaceutical industry when his son faced a personal difficulty that forever changed the family’s perspective on OTC medicine. After several long years of struggling with illness, Mason Mitchell was diagnosed with celiac disease. Thus began the tedious struggle of finding products suitable to his new dietary needs. As Texas natives, the Mitchells were no strangers to severe allergy seasons. Mason struggled to find an allergy medicine that would alleviate his allergy symptoms, without causing more side effects and symptoms from his gluten intolerance. Odes recognized DayClear® | MEDIA KIT 2015-2016 this tremendous gap in the OTC market and quickly began to formulate a solution for his son and other celiac disease sufferers. Thus, DayClear® was born. Now, the product line is a solution for people who have struggled with a certain intolerance, allergy, or disease that requires a thorough assessment of ingredients. Without the unnecessary additives of ordinary medicines, DayClear® is the cleaner, clearer, reliable OTC allergy, sinus, and cough, cold & flu medication. THE UNIQUE PRODUCT BENEFITS: DayClear® is the first line of clear, liquid medicine that works fast to treat a multitude of symptoms. Liquid medicine is quickly absorbed into the system because it doesn’t sit in the stomach or have to be broken down. Instead, it starts working as soon as it is taken. DayClear® separates its allergy and sinus formulas for a precise reason: to treat the exact symptoms instead of a general swath. The DayClear® line is an innovative new product line that not only brings a clean, clear choice for customers, but also brings original ingredients to the over-the-counter drug market.

Soon after graduating from Texas Tech University, Mason Mitchell began working for the family-owned company. His extensive knowledge of the company’s prescription and OTC products supported his unparalleled expertise and insight into the pharmaceutical field. But Mason is more than just an employee; he is the inspiration for the new, revolutionary DayClear® product line. After years of battling incessant illness, fruitless treatments and unsuccessful trips to the doctor, Mason was finally diagnosed with celiac disease. At the age of 25, he was forced to adopt new habits and begrudgingly learn the trials and tribulations of living with severe gluten sensitivity. His family realized that the OTC market had largely ignored this class of patients, and that Mason would continue to struggle to find medicines that would not worsen his condition. Mason’s own personal experiences, and difficulty in finding suitable products for his stringent dietary needs, drive his passion to promote the DayClear® product line. With DayClear®’s launch into the national spotlight, Mason is committed to helping other celiac sufferers and gluten-sensitive patients know that safe, healthy options are available.

Q: DO ALL MEDICINES CONTAIN GLUTEN, DYE, SUGAR, ACETAMINOPHEN OR ALCOHOL? A: Many OTC medications contain gluten because it is used as an excipient.

DayClear® and NiteClear® are also flavor-free, ridding the formula of distasteful flavor imitations. Alcohol is used in some over-the-counter medications to keep ingredients in stable form. Formulas for anyone ages 12 and over may have up to 10% alcohol in them. However, alcohol is unnecessary in the DayClear® and NiteClear® formulas, therefore they remain alcohol free.
