Feedback from leading U.S. hospital cancer centers leads to packaging redesign

For Immediate Release

PEABODY, Mass./EWORLDWIRE/Feb. 17, 2004 --- Jeans Cream, a cream specifically formulated for radiation patients, is now available in tubes.

Formerly packaged in a 4-ounce bottle, the two sizes - a new 7-ounce tube and a convenient purse-size 2-ounce tube - come to the market in response to nurses', radiation therapists', and patients' feedback.

The cream which was formulated by a cancer patient, Jean Soulios, for her own use and launched in early 2003, is in use at more than 230 cancer centers nationwide and is available in select pharmacies in the surrounding areas.

Several radiation centers are already recommending it exclusively, and hospitals and centers are inviting Jeans Cream to their facilities for a briefing on the merits of using the cream.

The new packaging makes the cream very easy for patients to use. The 7-ounce size retails for $45, providing a significant increase in volume for the price of the previous 4-ounce size; the 2-ounce size, designed for pocket or purse, retails for $21.50.

Scores of testimonials have been sent in from doctors, nurses, and patients praising the cream for the relief of radiation-induced dermatitis. When used as directed, the cream works to reduce a range of treatment related skin problems including redness and itchiness, from mild to severe. Patients tout the rich, creamy and non-greasy feel of the cream. Comments such as "Thank You! This was the best thing I did for myself during this entire ordeal," are among the most common ones received.

Orders can also be placed securely online via the Jeans Cream website at www.jeanscream.com or by calling toll-free 1-800-276-6116.
