Vancouver, British Columbia–(February 9, 2026) – Optimi Health Corp. (CSE:OPTI) (OTCQX:OPTHF) (FSE: 8BN) (“Optimi” or the “Company”), a Health Canada-licensed manufacturer of pharmaceutical psychoactive medication products, today reported that it has completed its first export of MD-MA capsules to Australia in 2026 under the Authorised Prescriber Scheme.
The export included 1,000 of Optimi’s MD-MA capsules in a standardised 60 mg dosage form, supplied for use in authorised clinical programs for the treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The export followed completion of Optimi’s first 2026 production cycle, and receipt of the required Australian import permits and Health Canada export permits authorising international shipment.
Based on standard clinical protocols, this quantity of MD-MA represents sufficient supply to support over 300 authorised PTSD treatment sessions under MD-MA-assisted therapy programs.
Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) are being collected by the Australian National University (ANU), which is developing one of the most comprehensive real-world evidence (RWE) datasets to date on MD-MA-assisted therapy for the treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Under the current framework, the Australian Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) offers reimbursement for eligible veterans receiving psychoactive-assisted therapy when delivered in accordance with program requirements.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, approximately 5-6% of Australians experience PTSD in a given year, representing roughly 1.3 to 1.5 million people, with higher prevalence among veterans and first responders.
Optimi holds a Medication Establishment Licence issued by Health Canada that authorises the manufacture of the MD-MA capsules for regulated therapeutic use, including the treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), where permitted by local authorities.
The Company’s licensed Australian pharmacy partner acts as importer of record and national distributor, supplying authorised clinics across Australia in accordance with local regulatory requirements. This delivery enables participating clinics to proceed with MD-MA-assisted therapy for eligible patients.
