CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of all recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 2010. Interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited financial statements.

NOTE 2. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

ALPHARx, INC. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on August 7, 1997. The company is an emerging pharmaceutical company specializing in the formulation of human therapeutic products using proprietary drug delivery technologies.

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of AlphaRx Inc., 100% of AlphaRx Canada Limited and 85% of AlphaRx International Holdings Limited and AlphaRx Life Sciences Ltd. (AIH’s wholly owned subsidiary) collectively the “Company”. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, they do not include any adjustments relating to the realization of the carrying value of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Continuance of the Company as a going concern is dependent on its future profitability and on the on-going support of its shareholders, affiliates and creditors. Factors relating to going concern issues include working capital deficiencies, operating losses, shareholders’ deficits, and continued reliance on external funding sources. In order to mitigate the going concern issues, the Company is constantly pursuing new business arrangements and striving to achieve profitability, and seeking capital funding on an ongoing basis via the issuance of promissory notes, and private placements.

NOTE 3. NOTES PAYABLE

The Company issued approximately $57,816 in promissory notes during the three months ended December 31, 2009. (During the three months ended December 31, 2008 the Company issued approximately $42,019 in promissory notes). These notes bear interest at 12% per annum and are repayable on the first anniversary date of issuance. Previously issued promissory notes bear interest at rates of 8% - 12% per annum. Prepayment of these notes prior to the first anniversary date is permitted.

See also note 8 – Related Party Transactions.

NOTE 4. NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST

Effective June 22, 2006, AlphaRx International Holdings Ltd. (“AIH”) issued 1,500 shares of its common stock to New Super Limited (“NSL”) at a price of approximately $HK 6,667 per share or $HK 10 million in cash. (USD $1,288,826). There are 10,000 common shares outstanding of which 8,500 or 85% belong to the Company. With the consolidation of only 85% of AIH, a non-controlling interest was established, representing net amounts owing to the non-controlling shareholder. The capital infusion into AIH is accounted for as additional paid in capital on the interim consolidated financial statements of the Company.

NOTE 5. COMMON STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008 there were 92,371,192 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding with a stated par value of $0.0001 per share. The Company did not issue any shares of Common Stock during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

NOTE 6. STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Company has one Stock Option Plan (the “2008 Stock Option Plan”) under which officers, key employees, certain independent contractors, and independent directors may be granted options to purchase shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued Common Stock. All outstanding options currently expire no later than June 30, 2012. Proceeds received by the Company from exercises of stock options are credited to Common Stock and additional paid-in capital.

At the Company’s Annual General Meeting held November 26, 2008 a majority of stockholders approved amendments to the existing Stock Option Plans including, among others: (i) combining the 2004 and 2006 Plans into the 2008 Stock Option Plan for ease of administration; (ii) providing a cap for the number of options to be issued at 22,000,000; (iii) providing guidelines for exercise prices such that the exercise price of any newly granted option is never less than the market value or in the case of a 10%+ holder, never less than 110% of the market value on the date of grant; (iv) providing for a maximum term of 5 years for any option granted; (v) provide for a vesting schedule whereby vesting must occur over at least 18 months with no more than 1/6^th of the options granted vesting in any 3 month period; (vi) providing for the maximum number of options to be granted to any one individual in any 12 month period to be no more than 5% of the issued and outstanding common stock, and (vii) providing for a maximum number of options to be granted to any Investor Relations party to be no more than 2% of the issued and outstanding common stock.

As a result of the new terms governing the Company’s 2008 Stock Option Plan, the maximum number of options that can still be issued totals 4,310,000, regardless of whether existing options are exercised or cancelled.

During the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 no options were granted and no options were exercised. Additional details of the 2008 Plan, as at December 31, 2009 are as follows:

The Company has adopted the fair value accounting for employee stock options. The Company did not record any stock based compensation expense during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to calculate this expense. There are no further stock based compensation expenses to be recorded based on options granted to date and their existing terms and conditions. Multiplying the options by their exercise price and dividing the total obtained by the total outstanding options calculated the weighted average exercise price.

NOTE 7. WARRANTS

The Company did not issue any warrants, nor were any warrants exercised during the three-month period ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. Warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock expired on December 31, 2009. The Company has the following warrants outstanding to purchase shares of Common Stock as of December 31, 2009:

NOTE 8: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company sources some of its funding in the form of promissory notes from Michael Lee – President and CEO. The Company is indebted to Mr. Lee in the amount of $51,936 including interest of $9,974 as of December 31, 2009. (December 31, 2008: $43,821 including interest of $4,264). These promissory notes bear interest at 12% per annum and are unsecured.

NOTE 9: RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. Specifically the Company has adopted ASC TOPIC 810 – Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a Company provides.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management has reviewed subsequent events through the date of filing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q that includes these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. There were no material subsequent events since February 8, 2010 (review completion date) that would require recognition or note disclosure in these financial statements.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATION

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements, including the condensed Notes thereto, appearing in this Form 10-Q. For additional information and complete financial statement note disclosure as of September 30, 2009, reference should be made to the annual Form 10-K filed during December 2009. Except for the historical information contained herein the foregoing discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements discussed herein.

General

AlphaRx is a drug delivery company specializing in the development of innovative human therapeutic products for the pharmaceutical and consumer health care market. Our core competence is in the development of novel drug formulations for therapeutic molecules or compounds that have exhibited poor gastro intestinal absorption due to poor solubility or have yet be administerable to the human body with an acceptable delivery method. Our drug delivery system is versatile and offers significant flexibility in the development of suitable dosage formulations (i.e. oral, topical or parenteral) to meet the requirements of specific drug molecules. We are no longer pursuing direct marketing and sales of our market ready products, nor do we intend to pursue direct marketing and commercialization of any newly developed products. The absence of marketing expertise, and significant ongoing funding required to introduce and promote a product successfully into the market are the principal factors limiting our ability to directly market our proprietary products. We are and will continue to seek out established collaborative partners, distributors and licensees to commercialize and market our products in exchange for milestone payments and royalties.

The costs incurred for individual research and development initiatives to date cannot be readily determined because (i) there is no clear distinction between initiatives in order to be able to differentiate between them; (ii) all initiatives have a common goal and that is to adopt our Bioadhesive Colloidal Dispersion drug delivery system to the specific drug in order to improve that drug’s effectiveness; and (iii) we do not maintain a time control system to separately classify research and development activities between similar initiatives.

The nature, timing and estimated costs to complete a research and development initiative and anticipated completion dates cannot be estimated because: (i) the nature of research is experimental and we could encounter unforeseen situations which could significantly delay project completion or require us to abandon the project; (ii) timing to complete a research initiative depends, to a certain extent, on financial resources and we cannot predict with any degree of certainty that financial resources will be available when needed to complete any specific initiative; (iii) we cannot significantly influence our partners and licensees as to timing and completion of collaborative efforts, and (iii) cost estimates cannot be predicted with any acceptable degree of accuracy due to unforeseen issues arising during the clinical stages or the approval stages of any specific initiative.

If we cannot complete our research and development initiatives on a timely basis consequences to our operations could be significant to the point where the initiative would be delayed or even abandoned. We could also face the risk of competitors developing the same or similar products and being first to market. Finally, our failure to develop products on a timely basis could substantially impair our ability to generate revenues and materially harm our financial position.

We cannot predict the timing of material net cash inflows from significant initiatives due to a number of factors including (i) availability of financial resources required to market a new product via a partner, (ii) our lack of experience in bringing a new product to market successfully and gaining market share; (iii) competitors’ products and the nature and timing of their marketing initiatives.

10

We intend to continue investing in the further development of our drug delivery technologies and to actively seek collaborators and licensees to accelerate the development and commercialization of products incorporating our drug delivery systems. Depending upon a variety of factors, including collaborative arrangements, available personnel and financial resources, we will conduct or fund clinical trials on such products and will undertake the associated regulatory activities.

Recent Developments

We entered into a collaboration agreement during August 2009 with Venturepharm Group, a China based company that provides world-class services for the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. Our objectives include the adaptation of our delivery technology to improve the quality and efficacy of pharmaceutical products selected for development in China. Venturepharm Group agrees to provide us with lab space, manufacturing facilities, regulatory services and distribution services all at a competitive rate. We subsequently entered into an agreement with Venturepharm Group for the provision of the active pharmaceutical ingredient for ARX 1088, an orally active interferon inducer intended for the treatment of Hepatitis. We are focused on commercializing ARX 1088 in China and South America.

We appointed Ms. Ruby Hui as the President of China Operations through our 85% subsidiary – AlphaRx Life Sciences Ltd. during the three months ended December 31, 2009. We have the following portfolio of short term and long term drug candidates which we will be attempting to commercialize mainly in the China market over the coming years. Patents or patents pending protect these product candidates:

We also signed a collaboration and licensing agreement with Riso Pharma Technology in September 2009. Under the agreement Riso Pharma Technology will undertake development and potential commercialization of ARX606T, which makes use of our proprietary formulation technology to deliver a safe and well-known growth factor topically to patients with severe wounds and ulcers.

We established a feasibility and option agreement in October 2008 with Gaia BioPharma Limited, a privately held early stage biopharmaceutical company. We concluded formulation development on GAI-122 during August 2009. GAI-122 is a drug used for the treatment of delirium caused by prolonged surgery. GAI-122 is proceeding to the clinical trial materials manufacturing stage and is expected to enter clinical trials by the middle of 2010. GAI-122 is protected by 4 United States patent applications.

One of our most promising drug candidates is Zysolin that uses an inhalable version of the drug Tobramycin (an antibiotic used to treat Gram-negative bacteria) to treat Gram-negative pneumonia. We have completed animal testing on Zysolin and are in the process of preparing protocols for Phase I/II human trials. We have completed safety and efficacy testing on Streptomycin (a drug used to treat tuberculosis) and are seeking collaborative partner(s) to initiate human trials on this product candidate. We continue to test formulations and conduct research on Vansolin (MRSA- pneumonia) and Streptomycin (tuberculosis). The delivery route for all of the above product candidates is Intravenous (I.V.) or Intratracheal (I.T.).

11

During March 2008 Cypress Bioscience, Inc. (“Cypress”) completed the acquisition of our partner Proprius Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Propius”). Proprius has development and commercialization rights for Indaflex – our topical cream for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee. Additional funding is now available through Cypress in order to further Phase II and III human trials for Indaflex and continue the FDA application process. Under the terms of our agreement, Proprius will undertake completion of clinical trials for Indaflex and will have exclusive global rights (except for Asia and Mexico) to sell and or sublicense Indaflex and any successor NSAID products developed by us. Should clinical trials for Indaflex be successful and sales commence, we will receive clinical trial completion milestone payments and sales milestone payments including a milestone payment of $3 million for the successful completion of the Phase II trials. In addition to the milestone payments, we will receive royalty payments on sales of Indaflex by Proprius, its affiliates and its sublicensees. There are no assurances or guarantees that Proprius and or Cypress will continue with human trials of Indaflex.

Overview of Results of Operations

NOTE (1) Net Loss per share on a quarterly basis does not equal net Loss per share for the annual periods due to rounding.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008

The Company incurred a net loss of $122,215 for the three month period ended December 31, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $19,958 incurred for the same period a year ago, an increase of $102,257. The Company signed two co-development agreements in the three months ended December 31, 2008 and generated $86,100 in consulting revenues for that period with no comparable revenue during the current period. This is the primary cause for the increase in net loss between periods.

Revenues

Total revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2009 were $51,570 as compared to $103,574 generated for the same period a year ago, a decrease of $52,004 or about 50%. Royalty revenues were comparable year over year at $16,570 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $17,474 for the same period a year ago. The Company also generated licensing revenues in the amount of $35,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 with no comparable revenues for the same period a year ago. We did not generate any consulting revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $86,100 in consulting revenues generated for the same period a year ago. We continue to pursue revenue opportunities in all forms (consulting, royalties and license fees).

12

General and Administrative Expenses

General and Administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs related to general management functions, finance, office overheads, as well as insurance costs and professional fees related to legal, audit and tax matters.

General and Administrative expenses were $98,478 for the three month period ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $53,243 incurred for the same period a year ago, an increase of $45,235 or about 85%. We realized a foreign exchange loss of $4,398 during the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to a foreign exchange gain of $37,510 incurred in the same period a year ago, an increase in this expense of $41,908 between periods.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses include costs for scientific personnel, supplies, equipment, and outsourced clinical and other research activities.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2009 were $45,391 as compared to $42,959 incurred for the same period a year ago, an increase of $2,432 or about 6%. We currently have 3 full time staff. We are maintaining our costs to be more in line with revenue expectations until capital markets improve or additional funding is sourced. Research efforts will again increase in the future depending on the timing and availability of additional funds. We also seek collaborative partners in order to obtain third party funding for certain drug candidates that show commercial promise in exchange for commercialization rights.

Depreciation

Depreciation totalled $10,081 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $17,176 incurred during the same period a year ago, a decrease of $7,095 or about 41%. Our capital asset purchases were minimized during the last two fiscal years totalling less than $17,000. Certain assets are now fully depreciated resulting in decreasing depreciation expense. Should any assets become permanently impaired they are written off to income as determined.

Loss from Operations

Loss from operations were $102,380 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to a loss of $9,804 incurred for the same period a year ago, an increase of $92,576.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was $19,835 as compared to interest expense of $10,154 generated during the same period a year ago. There were approximately $668,000 in promissory notes outstanding as of December 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $420,000 as of December 31, 2008 leading to an increase in interest expense. Credit card payables have also increased during the period ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period a year ago, leading to an increase in interest expense.

Non-Controlling interest in gain/ (loss) of Consolidated Subsidiaries

We reflected a non-controlling interest loss of $303 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to an income of $1,388 for the same period a year ago. Non-Controlling interest represents our minority shareholder’s proportionate interest in our 85% owned subsidiary – AIH. The non-controlling interest resulted in the investment in our subsidiary AlphaRx International Holdings Ltd. by an independent third party – New Super Ltd. during June 2006.

13

Net Loss Attributable to AlphaRx Inc. Stockholders

As a result of the above mentioned revenue and expense items, we incurred a net loss attributable to AlphaRx Inc. stockholders of $122,518 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $18,570 incurred in the same period a year ago.

Translation Adjustment

This adjustment results from unrealized foreign exchange gain and losses stemming from translation of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. Dollars. We incurred a translation adjustment loss of $4,136 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to a translation gain of $16,461 for the same period a year ago.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at December 31, 2009 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $(1,101,288) as compared to a working capital deficiency of $(978,820) as at September 30, 2009. The Company has also increased its stockholders’ deficiency to $(1,026,934) as at December 31, 2009 compared to a stockholders’ deficiency of $(900,583) as at September 30, 2009. We did not issue any stock during the three months ended December 31, 2009.

We have a licensing arrangement with Andromaco, which provides us with a small royalty stream. We entered into collaboration and licensing agreements with Riso Pharma Technology and Venturepharm Group in recent months. We entered into two co-development agreements during the three months ended December 31, 2008 and we continue to seek out new arrangements. We also have licensing arrangements with Proprius Pharmaceuticals Inc. and a joint venture agreement with AlphaAP Inc., which may provide us with milestone payments and/or royalty streams in the future. There is no assurance that such payments or royalty streams will materialize.

Since inception, we have financed operations principally from the sale of Common Stock and issuance of promissory notes and expect to continue this practice to fund our ongoing activities.

We currently do not have sufficient resources to complete the commercialization of any of our proposed products or to carry out our entire business strategy. Therefore, we will likely need to raise substantial additional capital to fund our operations in the future. We cannot be certain that any financing will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all. Any additional equity financings will be dilutive to our existing stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may require additional stock to be issued and/or involve restrictive covenants on our business.

We expect to continue to spend capital on:

1. research and development programs;
2. preclinical studies and clinical trials;
3. regulatory processes; and
4. third party licensees and distribution partners to manufacture and market our products for us.

The amount of capital we may need will depend on many factors, including:

1. the progress, timing and scope of our research and development programs;
2. the progress, timing and scope of our preclinical studies and clinical trials;
3. the time and cost necessary to obtain regulatory approvals;
4. the time and cost necessary to establish or to retain sales and marketing partners to market our products;
5. the time and cost necessary to respond to technological and market developments; and
6. new collaborative, licensing and other commercial relationships that we may establish.

14

The inability to raise capital would have a material adverse effect on the Company. We currently have no capital commitments other than the payment of rent on our facilities lease, one leased auto and for certain research equipment.

CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Certain of the information contained in this document constitutes “forward-looking statements”, including but not limited to those with respect to the future revenues, our development strategy, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the risks and uncertainties associated with a drug delivery company which has not successfully commercialized our first product, including a history of net losses, unproven technology, lack of manufacturing experience, current and potential competitors with significant technical and marketing resources, need for future capital and dependence on collaborative partners and on key personnel. Additionally, we are subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with all drug delivery companies, including compliance with government regulations and the possibility of patent infringement litigation, as well as those factors disclosed in our documents filed from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
