About ARC
Like many life-saving treatments, radiation therapy can often cause side effects. Radiation Dermatitis is a common side effect which occurs during ongoing radiation therapy and affects 75%–95% of patients.
Preventing and treating Radiation Dermatitis is an essential part of the whole treatment because it can have an extensive impact on the treatment outcome. Preventing and treating Radiation Dermatitis helps you avoid pain and discomfort—and it also helps prevent the interruption of your treatment.
The best way to manage Radiation Dermatitis is to prevent it. ARC is a pre-radiation topical cream treatment for the protection against and management of Radiation Dermatitis.

Massage gently into the skin until absorbed. Continue use until treatment is completed.
