TUCSON, Ariz.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--CDEX Inc. (OTCBB: CEXI) introduced the ValiMed™ Model CCT to the North American healthcare markets at the December ASHP conference in Orlando, Florida. The CCT was earlier introduced to the European healthcare markets at the annual SNPHPU conference in Toulouse, France. (See related 8/21/08 and 9/23/08 press releases at [ www.cdexinc.com ].) Going forward, the ValiMed CCT will be CDEX's worldwide Medication Safety and Narcotics Return System platform, replacing the ValiMed Model VM.

The CCT validates the compounding of high-risk medications and return narcotics in hospital pharmacies. It uses the same technologies employed in the VM, currently installed at hospitals around the world, but with a smaller footprint, enhanced sensitivity, comprehensive reporting tools and networking capabilities. (See the Medication Safety section of our web site, [ www.cdexinc.com ].)

"The ASHP conference attracted over 20,000 attendees from 86 countries and was truly a success for our Company," stated CDEX CEO and Chairman Malcolm Philips. "Greg Firmbach, recently promoted to VP of our Medication Safety Division for North America, led the CDEX Team at the conference. Greg has more than 25 years of management experience in the healthcare arena and will provide good leadership as we continue with our global marketing efforts."

"CDEX was the only exhibitor featuring a technology that directly validates the accuracy of compounded high-risk medications or return narcotics," said Mr. Firmbach. "Patients across the globe die every day from compounding errors. ValiMed tackles this problem directly by assuring that patients receive The Right Drug at the Right Dose! That is why our booth was busy from the opening until the closing bell. This interest generated a number leads for continuation of our year-over-year ValiMed revenue growth into 2009."
