Virpax Pharmaceuticals, Inc. operates as a preclinical-stage pharmaceutical enterprise, dedicated to pioneering diverse drug-delivery systems and novel drug-releasing technologies. Its core focus lies in developing advanced, non-opioid and non-addictive solutions for pain management, alongside therapies targeting central nervous system disorders.
