(the \u201cCompany\u201d) (NYSE American: IGC) announced today that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (\u201cUSPTO\u201d) issued a patent (#11,351,152) to the Company titled \u201cMethod and Composition for Treating Seizure Disorders.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20220608006202\/en\/650703\/5\/IGC_New_Logo_High.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20220608006202\/en\/650703\/21\/IGC_New_Logo_High.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\nThe patent is assigned to IGC and relates to compositions and methods for treating multiple types of seizure disorders and epilepsy in humans and animals, using a combination of the cannabinoid cannabidiol (CBD) with other compounds. Subject to further research and study, the combination is intended to reduce side effects caused by hydantoin anticonvulsant drugs such as phenobarbital, by reducing the dosing of anticonvulsant drugs in humans, dogs, and cats.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAbout 50 million people worldwide are affected by epilepsy (WHO, 2022). Of the approximately 76 million dogs in the U.S. (American Veterinary Medical Association, 2018), about 5% (one in 20 dogs), or about 3.8 million dogs, can suffer from seizures (Today\u2019s Veterinary Practice, 2014). The Company\u2019s current plans are to pursue a veterinarian pathway through observational studies and clinical trials aimed towards developing a potential treatment for seizure disorders in dogs and cats.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>About IGC:<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIndia Globalization Capital, Inc. (IGC), headquartered in Maryland, engages in the development of cannabinoid-based therapies for healthcare applications. IGC recently completed the first Phase 1 safety and tolerability clinical trial for patients suffering from Alzheimer\u2019s disease using a THC-based investigational new drug candidate. The Company also operates an infrastructure business based in India. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.igcinc.us&amp;esheet=52744649&amp;newsitemid=20220608006202&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.igcinc.us&amp;index=1&amp;md5=78e8fab2b1a846a2434596d021a90753\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" shape=\"rect\">www.igcinc.us<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.igcpharma.com&amp;esheet=52744649&amp;newsitemid=20220608006202&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.igcpharma.com&amp;index=2&amp;md5=2c7ed9cd8cdd2a89441c1215bb05f073\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" shape=\"rect\">www.igcpharma.com<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>Forward-Looking Statements:<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThis press release contains forward-looking statements.
