FDA Over-the-Counter Approved Hangover Relief Medicine to Arrive in Stores on Independence Day

  NASHVILLE, TN, Jun 25 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
The only FDA over-the-counter (OTC) hangover relief medicine is now
available to retailers and consumers in the U.S., and will arrive in
stores for the July 4th holiday with a special tribute pack for our
troops.

    DINOCO International Corporation has recently been granted FDA OTC
approval to begin marketing and selling its patent pending JACK'S(TM)
(www.getyourjack.com) brand of hangover relief medicines to mass retailers
and consumers.

    JACK'S(TM) Hangover Relief Formula No. 49 medicine consists of caffeine,
acetaminophen and calcium carbonate caplets, which relieve symptoms of
headache, fatigue, muscular aches, heartburn, sour stomach, upset stomach,
pre-menstrual cramps, menstrual cramps and generalized aches and pains
associated with a hangover. JACK'S(TM) Hangover Relief DECAF Formula No.
67 medicine consists of acetaminophen and calcium carbonate caplets, which
relieve symptoms of headache, muscular aches, heartburn, sour stomach,
upset stomach, menstrual cramps and generalized aches and pains associated
with a hangover.

    Statistics show that 34% of Americans who consume alcohol are binge
drinkers and 52% of college students are binge drinkers. In addition,
absenteeism and poor job performance resulting from hangovers cost the
nation $148 billion annually, according to the Annals of Internal
Medicine.

    JACK'S(TM) customizes its packaging to accommodate consumers suffering
from symptoms of a hangover, based on their personal interests and the
geographic location of retailers. For example, JACK'S(TM) High Rollers
Hangover Relief is designed as a playing card, positioned for sales in
hotel casino mini-bars for guests who have over-indulged in late night
activities. JACK'S(TM) Hangover Relief benefits hotel guests because they
do not have to leave their hotel room to begin their hangover recovery
process. Hotel casinos benefit by providing a solution for their guests to
feel better quickly and safely, getting them back to the casino floor or
resort entertainment revenue centers sooner, where it will increase their
bottom line.

    Another example is JACK'S(TM) Election Hangover Relief, which consists of
"retro-style" Democratic and Republican versions, which will become
popular during convention rallies and political fundraisers. They will
become a collector's item for consumers of each respective party.

    Additionally, JACK'S(TM) Hangover Relief has specialized themed packs for
racing fans, truck drivers, wine enthusiasts, tailgaters, rock n' rollers,
travelers, Democrats and Republicans. JACK'S(TM) customizes packaging for
any organization or special event and offers private label packaging for
store brands.
