The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office notified Harold Gallaher and Amanda Hutchings of Divine Api-Logics LLC of the approval of their utility patent application titled “Apitherapy Method and Composition.”

The patent covers a matrix system for the transdermal delivery of Apitoxin (honey bee venom).

“We are thrilled that after years of hard work, research and development, our patent was finally granted,” Hutchings said. “It just goes to show that hard work and dedication does actually pay off. With this patent, we are able to start exploring some really exciting ideas for current and future products. The approval of this patent allows the freedom for us to grow our current product lines, Harold’s Famous and The Hive Skin Care Co., and to eventually expand into the OTC drug market.

“This patent also grants us 20 years of important, broad legal protections for our ideas, from the initial date of our application, which was November 18, 2015.”

Added Gallaher: “While expanding sales of our Harold’s Famous [Bee Cream] products, we have also extended research into new and exciting fields. It is wonderful to hear from people who find that our products offer them a better quality of life. It’s also wonderful to be leading this type of innovation while maintaining environmental responsibility and bringing awareness to the declining honey bee population.”
