LONDON, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - June 10, 2009) - Stellar Pharmaceuticals Inc. ("Stellar" or the "Company") (OTCBB:SLXCF) is pleased to announce that its United States licensee, Watson Pharma, Inc. ("Watson") (NYSE:WPI), has received a conditional approval of their Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) to conduct clinical work with Uracyst® from The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States of America ("USA").
