Patients will be managed with twice daily prophylactic use of the proposed intervention (Dermaprazole) topical cream for radiation dermatitis. The amount of cream will be 2cc per application and will be measured in pre-filled capped syringes for every application.
Other Names:
  • esomeprazole
  • Active Comparator: Aquaphor

    15 HNC patients using Aquaphor, the current clinical standard of care

    Drug: Aquaphor
    Patients will be managed with twice daily prophylactic use of Aquaphor. The amount of Aquaphor will be 2cc per application and will be measured in pre-filled capped syringes for every application.
