Convertible Preferred stock ("Series K Stock") acquired in connection with
a Capital Stock Exchange Agreement dated November 25, 2002 (the

vote, voting as a class with the holders of the Issuer's Common Stock. SEE
Item # 4 herein for a further description of the Series K Stock.
(2) The calculation of the foregoing percentage is based on 14,687,506 shares
of the Issuer's Common Stock outstanding as of May 30, 2003.

(the "Statement") relates is the Common Stock of the Issuer. The Issuer is a

Avenue, Hauppauge, New York, 11788.
This Statement relates to securities issued in connection with the
Agreement by and among the Issuer, Interpharm, Inc. (a New York Corporation and
current subsidiary of the Issuer), and Raj Sutaria, Mona Rametra, Ravi Sutaria,
and Perry Sutaria (the "Individuals"), pursuant to which the Issuer purchased
all of the capital stock of Interpharm, Inc. (the "Transaction").
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
(a) The name of the person filing this statement is Mona Rametra,
hereafter sometimes referred to as the "Reporting Person."
(b) & (c) The Reporting Person is the daughter of the Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer, Dr. Maganial K. Sutaria, and the
niece of the President of the Issuer, Bhupatlal K. Sutaria.
(d) & (e) During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors). During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been a
party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent
jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment,
decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, United States Federal or State securities laws
or finding any violations with respect to such laws.
(f) The Reporting Person is a United States citizen.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
The Reporting person received the Common Stock reported in this
Statement in connection with the Agreement in exchange for shares of Interpharm,
Inc. common stock. The Reporting Person did not acquire beneficial ownership of
any of the Common Stock with borrowed funds.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
The purpose of the Transaction was for the Issuer to acquire
Interpharm, Inc. The Issuer acquired the Individuals' common stock of
Interpharm, Inc. in exchange for a percentage of the Issuers' Common Stock and
the Issuer's Series K Stock. The Reporting Person acquired the Common Stock for
investment purposes only. The Reporting Person will continue to evaluate his
ownership and voting position in the Issuer and may consider the following
courses of action: (i) continuing to hold the Common Stock for investment; (ii)
disposing of all or a portion of the Common Stock in open market sales or in
privately-negotiated transactions; (iii) acquiring additional shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock or other securities in the open market or in
4
privately-negotiated transactions; or (iv) hedging transactions (other than
short sales) with respect to the Common Stock. The Reporting Person has not as
yet determined which courses of action specified in this paragraph he may
ultimately take. The Reporting Person's future actions with regard to this
investment are dependent on his evaluation of a variety of circumstances
affecting the Issuer in the future, including the market price of the Issuer's
Common Stock, the Issuer's prospects and the Reporting Person's portfolio.
The Reporting Person acquired the Series K Stock in connection with the
Agreement pursuant to which all of the outstanding common stock of Interpharm,
Inc. was exchange for Common Stock and Series K Stock of the Issuer. The Series
K Stock is not convertible for at least one year following May 30, 2003, and if
converted, the underlying Common Stock will be issued over a period of seven
years.
The relative rights, preferences and limitations of the Series K Stock,
$.01 par value per share, is governed by the Certificate of Designations,
Preferences and Rights of the Series K Stock. Each share of Series K Stock is
entitled to one vote, voting as a class with the holders of the Common Stock. It
is entitled to receive dividends to the same extent and in the same amounts as
the Common Stock. So long as any shares of the Series K Stock remain
outstanding, the Issuer may not create any new series or class of common stock
having preferences prior to, or in parity with or superior to the Series K Stock
as to voting or liquidation preferences.
The Series K Stock will be convertible into Common Stock, no sooner
than one year after May 30, 2003, upon the happening of any of the following
events (the "Triggering Events"): The Issuer is (i) deemed by AMEX to be in
compliance with applicable listing standards; (ii) deemed by another exchange to
be in compliance with its applicable listing standards in the event the Issuer's
securities are listed on such exchange; or (iii) the Issuer is no longer listed
on AMEX, the Nasdaq National Market or SmallCap Market, or the New York Stock
Exchange.
Upon the occurrence of any of the above Triggering Events, the shares
of Series K Stock will become convertible into Common Stock. The aggregate
number of the shares of common stock to be issued upon the full conversion of
all of the Series K Stock is equal to the difference of (a) four times (i) the
difference of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the closing of the date of the Triggering Event and the
number of shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon the full conversion of
any outstanding shares of Series A, B, C and J preferred stock on the date of
the Triggering Event, (ii) less the number of shares of Common Stock issued
after the date of the closing pursuant to obligation which arose after May 30,
2003, and (iii) less the number of shares of Common Stock issued to the
Individuals pursuant to the Agreement, and (b) the number of shares of Common
Stock issued to the Individuals pursuant to the Agreement. The net effect of the
conversion feature, together with the Common Stock to be issued at the closing
pursuant to the Agreement, is to issue to the Individuals the Common Stock equal
to approximately 80% of the total number of Common Stock outstanding as of the
5
date of the Triggering Event, after giving effect to the conversion, less shares
of Common Stock which may be issued between the date of the closing under the
Agreement and the date of the Triggering Event arising out of obligations which
arose after the date of closing.
Beginning on the date of the Trigger Event and on each anniversary date
thereof, one-seventh of the total number of shares of Series K Stock will
automatically convert into the Common Stock until all of the Series K Stock has
been converted, provided, however, if at any time after the date of the
Triggering Event, the holders of the Series K Stock own less than 51% of the
Common Stock, then the holders may convert such number of Series K Stock as will
be necessary such that the holder will own 51% of the outstanding Common Stock.
Except as set forth above, the Reporting Person has no present intent
or proposals that relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any
person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities
of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of
its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management
of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
Directors or to fill any vacancies on the Board; (e) any material change in the
present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material
change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (g) any other material
change in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or
other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any
person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a
national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination
of registration pursuant to Section 12 (g) (4) of the Exchange Act or (j) any
action similar to those enumerated above.
The Reporting Person reserves the right to determine in the future
whether to change the purpose or purposes described above or whether to adopt
plans or proposals of the type specified above.

(a) See Rows 11 (Aggregate Amount Beneficially Owned By Each Reporting Person)
and 13 (Percent of Class Represented By The Amount In Row 11) of the Cover Page.
(b) See Rows 7 (Sole Voting Power) and 9 (Sole Dispositive Power) of the Cover
Page. The Reporting Person has the power to vote to dispose or to direct the

6
(c) The Reporting Person has not effected any transaction in the Common Stock

of, dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock reported
in Item 5(a).
(e) Not applicable.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Reporting person also exchanged his
shares of Interpharm, Inc.'s common stock for a percentage of the Series K
Stock, as described more fully in Item 4 herein. Also the Reporting Person
received an option to purchase additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to an
employment agreement as set forth in Item 4 herein. The Reporting Person does
not have any other contracts, arrangements, understandings, or relationships
(legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to the Common Stock or the
Series K Stock, including transfer or voting thereof, finder's fees, joint
ventures, loan or option arrangements, put or calls, guarantees of profits,
division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
