(Date of Event Which Requires Filing of this Statement)

Check the appropriate box to designate the rule pursuant to which this Schedule is filed:

*The remainder of this cover page shall be filled out for a reporting person’s initial filing on this form with respect to the subject class of securities, and for any subsequent amendment containing information which would alter the disclosures provided in a prior cover page.

The information required in the remainder of this cover page shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section of the Act but shall be subject to all other provisions of the Act (however, see the Notes).

 * As more fully described in Item 4, the Warrants are subject to a 4.99% blocker and the percentage set forth in row (11) gives effect to such blocker. However, as more fully described in Item 4, the securities reported in rows (6), (8) and (9) show the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon full exercise of such reported securities and do not give effect to such blocker. Therefore, the actual number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Reporting Person, after giving effect to such blocker, is less than the number of securities reported in rows (6), (8) and (9).

CUSIP No: 44148G105

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends the statement on Schedule 13G filed on March 18, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13G”) with respect to the Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (the “Common Stock”) of Hoth Therapeutics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the meanings set forth in the Original Schedule 13G. This Amendment amends and restates each of Item 4 and Item 5 in its entirety as set forth below.

Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the issuer identified in Item 1.

The information as of the date of the event which requires filing of this statement required by Items 4(a) – (c) is set forth in Rows 5 – 11 of the cover page for each Reporting Person hereto and is incorporated herein by reference for each such Reporting Person. The percentage set forth in Row 11 of the cover page for each Reporting Person is based on 23,974,178 shares of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2021, and assumes the exercise of the Company’s reported warrants (the “Reported Warrants”) subject to the Blocker (as defined below).

Pursuant to the terms of the Reported Warrants, the Reporting Persons cannot exercise the Reported Warrants to the extent the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, after any such exercise, more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Blocker”), and the percentage set forth in Row 11 of the cover page for each Reporting Person gives effect to the Blocker.

As of the date of the event which requires filing of this statement, Iroquois Master Fund Ltd. (“Iroquois Master Fund”) held Reported Warrants to purchase 911,392 shares of Common Stock (subject to the Blocker) and Iroquois Capital Investment Group LLC (“ICIG”) held Reported Warrants to purchase 354,430 shares of Common Stock (subject to the Blocker).

Mr. Abbe shares authority and responsibility for the investments made on behalf of Iroquois Master Fund with Ms. Kimberly Page, each of whom is a director of the Iroquois Master Fund. As such, Mr. Abbe and Ms. Page may each be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all shares of Common Stock underlying the Reported Warrants (each subject to the Blocker) held by Iroquois Master Fund. Iroquois Capital is the investment advisor for Iroquois Master Fund and Mr. Abbe is the President of Iroquois Capital. Mr. Abbe has the sole authority and responsibility for the investments made on behalf of ICIG. As such, Mr. Abbe may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all shares of Common Stock underlying the Reported Warrants (each subject to the Blocker) held by Iroquois Master Fund and ICIG. The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by any Reporting Person as to beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock owned by another Reporting Person. Each of the Reporting Persons hereby disclaims any beneficial ownership of any such shares of Common Stock except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.

If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following:   x

By signing below each of the undersigned certifies that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, the securities referred to above were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of or with the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer of the securities and were not acquired and are not held in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having that purpose or effect.

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
