Radx Sunblock

We have also perfected a post-irradiation sunscreen, which should be worn daily on treated areas that might be exposed to sun. Organic aloe gel based and paba-free, these formulations are made with the nation's #1 rated 8-hour waterproof system...so generally one application per day is sufficient. The new SPF 44 contains Parsol 1789 UVA blocker, and female patients will be pleased to find that the product leaves an almost matte finish, and make-up can be applied over it.

Radx Lip Protectant

This is generally recommended for head/neck treatments, as they will dry the lips. This product also has significant moisturizing capability as well as SPF #30. We are all aware that irradiated skin should not get sun. For that reason, SolRx, our parent company, produces a high quality water-based, waterproof, unfragranced and Paba-Free Sunscreen with parsol 1789. We recommend its use for any outdoor exposure during the first 3 years following radiation treatments.

Radx Moisture Therapy

Pre-,Early- & Post-Series Care

The company founders were the same people who introduced aloe vera gel to the general public, advancing it beyond the health food store product that it was in the 1970s and 1980s. Radx Moisture Therapy follows in that same vein,using a raw ingredient relatively new to consumers...prickly pear cactus gel, formulated into a moisturizing/healing lotion. Studies indicate that this gel contains skin-beneficial ingredients that are helpful in the preparation of the skin for radiation treatments. Irradiation depletes the skin of moisture,and can reduce elasticity. Radx MoistureTherapy,used for several days before treatment begins,and during the first few days of the treatment,can reduce the damaging effects of radiation. Moisture Therapy is also excellent as a post-treatment follow-up to help replenish moisture as well as aid in cell regeneration during the skin-building process...without leaving a greasyresidue found in many othermoisturizers. It is used daily by medical professionals to offset the drying effects of frequent hand-washing.
