This shampoo provides gentle cleansing of fragile hair and relief for itching and dryness of the scalp during cancer treatment and chemotherapy. Because cancer treatment or a compromised immune system may result in hair loss (alopecia), sensitive scalp, or hair that is brittle and dry, extremely gentle care and conditioning is very important.

About This Brand: Alra Care Products provide skin care for men and women to help soothe and relieve the effects of radiation, chemotherapy, and day to day wear from cancer treatments. Alra evolved when two close friends were each diagnosed with breast cancer. Neither of their physicians had a recommendation to soothe the redness, itching, and dryness each were experiencing. Responding to these skin care needs, ALRA (short for all radiation) Therapy Lotion was created in 1987. European trained cosmetic chemist Henry Ott, who has developed skin and hair care products for major companies, turned to his laboratory and collaborated with Ronald W. Thompson, M.D. at Cedars-Sinai Comprehensive Cancer Center. Utilizing the finest medically proven moisturizing and restorative ingredients in high levels for efficacy, ALRA Therapy Lotion was tested and proven safe and effective. After positive results and reviews from the Therapy Lotion, the Non-Metallic Deodorant and Mild Conditioning Shampoo were developed.
Alra is proudly made in the USA and a portion of proceeds are given to support organizations such as the Susan G. Komen Foundation, the Wellness Community and the American Cancer Society.
