Date:3/18/2008

ACTON, Mass., March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Psychemedics Corporation (Amex: PMD) announced that its Board of Directors has approved a new stock repurchase program to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock subject to market conditions.

Raymond C. Kubacki, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said, "The Board believes that this stock repurchase program is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. This repurchase program is two times the number of shares that were last authorized to be added to our previous repurchase program by the Company in May 2003. Our balance sheet remains strong with approximately $10 million of cash at year end and no long-term debt. Our Directors believe that this repurchase program represents an excellent investment opportunity for our Company."

The Company recently announced a $0.15 per share quarterly dividend, representing the Company's 46th consecutive quarterly dividend.

This repurchase program will be implemented in the open market from time to time in compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and applicable legal requirements. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the plan may be suspended at any time at the Company's discretion.

Psychemedics is the world's largest provider of testing for drugs of abuse using hair analysis with thousands of corporations relying on the patented Psychemedics drug testing services. Psychemedics' clients include over 10% of the Fortune 500, some of the largest police departments in America and Federal Reserve Banks.
