PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Dr. Dharmdev Joshi for MedHugs

STAFFORD, TX (JANUARY 2026) — MedHugs, a manufacturer of oral thin film supplements, today announced the initiation of a seed fundraising round. The capital will be deployed primarily to fund marketing campaigns, increase brand awareness, and expand sales channels for its flagship product line, NutriHugs.

Following the completion of its initial production run, MedHugs reports that inventory is currently stocked and ready for distribution. The fundraising effort is designed to support the commercial push of these finished goods into the consumer market. The company notes early sales traction in its initial launch phase and aims to accelerate this growth through targeted marketing strategies.

MedHugs has developed a portfolio of more than 150 product formulations. In addition to the current supplement line, the company has outlined a product roadmap that includes the development of pharmaceutical-grade strips in the coming year.

“With our inventory secured and early sales data indicating market demand, our focus shifts entirely to customer acquisition,” said Dharmdev, Founder of MedHugs. “This funding will allow us to execute our marketing strategy and introduce our extensive portfolio of developed formulations to a wider audience.”

The company intends to use this capital to transition from a development-focused entity into a global brand within the oral thin film market.
