                         BRADLEY PHARMACEUTICALS UPDATES
                       TIMING OF FILING OF 2005 FORM 10-K

Fairfield, NJ - May 1, 2006 - BRADLEY PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. (NYSE: BDY)
announced today that as a consequence of the Company's failure to file its
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 by April 30,
2006, the Company has breached a provision under its $110 million Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement, as amended, with a syndicate of lenders led by
Wachovia Bank. The Company intends to request that its lenders provide it with a
waiver of the existing default, a 20-day extension to file its 2005 Form 10-K
and an extension of time to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2006.

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements
include statements that address activities, events or developments that Bradley
expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future, such as sales
and earnings estimates, other predictions of financial performance, timing of
payments on indebtedness, timing of our filings with the SEC, launches by
Bradley of new products and market acceptance of Bradley's products.
Forward-looking statements are based on Bradley's experience and perception of
current conditions, trends, expected future developments and other factors it
believes are appropriate under the circumstances and are subject to numerous
risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Bradley's control. These risks
and uncertainties include Bradley's ability to estimate sales, ability to comply
with the restrictive covenants under its credit facility; ability to refinance
its credit facility, if necessary; ability to access the capital markets on
attractive terms or at all; ability to favorably resolve the pending SEC
informal inquiry and file required financial statements with the SEC in
accordance with the Company's announced timetable, maintain sales of its
products, successfully acquire, develop, integrate, or sell new products,
including POLYPHENON(R) E Ointment when and if approved by the FDA, or
effectively react to other risks and uncertainties described from time to time
in Bradley's SEC filings, such as fluctuation of quarterly financial results,
estimation of product returns, chargebacks, rebates and allowances,
concentration of customers, reliance on third party manufacturers and suppliers,
litigation or other proceedings (including the pending class action and
shareholder derivative lawsuits), government regulation and stock price
volatility. Further, Bradley cannot accurately predict the impact on its
business of the approval, introduction, or expansion by competitors of generic
or therapeutically equivalent or comparable versions of Bradley's products or of
any other competing products. In addition, actual results may differ materially
from those projected. Bradley undertakes no obligation to publicly update any
forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events
or otherwise.
