[Media Release] Focused Report: Clinician-Supported Emerging Treatment Options, Radiation Dermatitis

An Informative Review for Healthcare Providers

Quest Healthcare, A Division of Quest Products, LLC. (Quest Healthcare), a healthcare solutions company focused on delivering innovative healthcare products that improves patients’ overall quality of life, today released an informative review fortitled, “Current Prevention and Management of Radiation Dermatitis: A Focus on Pharmalogic and Emerging Treatments,” summarizing guideline recommendations for management and prevention of radiation dermatitis and providing research-driven insight on effective treatment options, including, the use of ALOCANE® Plus – a topical anesthetic & antimicrobial product produced by Quest Products, LLC. and distributed by Quest Healthcare. 

 

The published report sponsored by Quest Healthcare reveals approximately 95% of cancer patients receiving radiation therapy will experience radiation dermatitis at some point during their treatment. Despite the incidence of radiation dermatitis, evidence supporting the use of pharmacologic interventions for prevention or treatment is insufficient. Currently, only topical therapies are recommended by experts for prevention and management. 

 

“We feel this study uncovers the substantial advantages provided by the proactive use of ALOCANE® Plus on patients experiencing radiation dermatitis,” states Margaret Swantko, Director of Sales and Education for Quest Healthcare. 

 

Among the recommended emerging treatments listed in this report is ALOCANE® Plus, an anesthetic & antimicrobial product predominately used to treat early stage wounds, pressure injuries and radiation dermatitis. Testimonials from clinicians support the use of ALOCANE® Plus as topical remedy to relieve pain and itching associated with radiotherapy. Additionally, one clinician reports patients following a treatment protocol with ALOCANE® plus saw resolution of radiation dermatitis within a month of initial use.

 

ALOCANE® Plus, a healthcare product of Quest Products, LLC, offers relief from pain, irritation, dryness and skin damage caused by a range of skin issues, including minor cuts, scrapes and ulcerations. ALOCANE® Plus contains 4% lidocaine, the highest levels allowed and approved by the FDA without a prescription, as well as antimicrobial Benzalkonium Chloride to help prevent infection and the anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and healing properties of the aloe plant. 

 

“Quest Products, LLC and Quest Healthcare are proud of the innovative research and development of quality products, such as ALOCANE® Plus, which allows both companies to provide healthcare providers across the country the ability to enhance the quality of life of their patients,” adds Quest Products, LLC SVP of Business Development, Mark McGreevy.
