    PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Aug. 30 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- BMP Sunstone Corporation (Nasdaq: BJGP) ("BMP Sunstone" or the "Company") today announced that its "Hao Wawa" (Good Baby) brand was ranked first among the top three pediatric medicine brands on China’s Pharmaceutical Pediatric Medicine Brand list, under "Healthy China - 2010 China Pharmaceutical Brand Evaluation." The results were based on an extensive evaluation of 20 well-known domestic and international medicine brands, nationally, and officially released on August 28, 2010, in Shanghai. 
    The evaluation was organized by the China Medicine Retail Development and Research Center (MDC), the China Pharmaceutical Enterprises Cooperation and Development Organization (CPEO) and the China Pharmaceutical Brand Evaluation Committee. Safety and efficacy were the two indicators used to evaluate all domestic and international participants in the evaluation.
    David Gao, Chief Executive Officer of BMP Sunstone, stated, "We are honored to receive this award.  Safety enhancement is becoming increasingly key to the development of the pharmaceutical industry in China; a trend driven by both government initiatives and competition among manufacturers. The award speaks to the quality and strength of our brand, particularly after our subsidiary, Sunstone (Tangshan) Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd, was listed among the ‘Top 100 China Pharmaceutical Enterprises’ in 2009." 
    Sunstone has been dedicated to the healthcare of women and children for over 14 years, having run China’s first gynecological and pediatric pharmaceutical plant since 1996. It was one of the first companies among peers in China to propose customizing drug dosages for children’s use while maintaining high quality.  By executing its "Special Drugs for Special Use" theory in children’s medications, its flagship product brand, "Good Baby," has grown into one of the most trusted names in pediatric medicine in China.  Sunstone currently markets 17 products under the "Hao Wawa" (Good Baby) brand.
