Sonoma Pharmaceuticals Launches New Ceramax™ Skin Barrier Lotion with Skin-Enriching Lipogrid Technology™

PETALUMA, Calif., Oct. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sonoma Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNOA), a specialty pharmaceutical company that develops and markets unique and effective solutions for the treatment of dermatological conditions and advanced tissue care, today announced the launch of a new Ceramax™ Skin Barrier Lotion. This new product complements Sonoma’s current Ceramax Skin Barrier Cream.

“We continue to receive positive physician and patient feedback on our current Ceramax cream, which we launched two years ago,” said Tom Devine, Sonoma Pharmaceutical’s dermatology division general manager. “We are now expanding this product line for those patients who prefer prescription-level barrier protection benefits in a lighter lotion formula.”

Both Ceramax products contain skin-enriching technology that helps manage dry itchy skin, minor skin irritations, rashes and inflammation caused by various skin conditions, including atopic dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis. This technology contains selected lipids and a lipid precursor designed to easily penetrate the bilayers of the skin by blending with the natural lipid building blocks.

Ceramax lotion will be available via dermatologist prescription throughout the United States beginning in late October. 

About Atopic Dermatitis
According to a report by Research and Markets, the global atopic dermatitis treatment market in 2016 was valued at $4.04 billion U.S. It is expected to grow to $7.66 billion by 2025, expanding at a CAGR of 7.4% from 2017 to 2025.

Symptoms of atopic dermatitis are characterized by itchy skin, which can lead to rash, redness, swelling, crusting and scaling. The disease affects up to 20 percent of infants and young children, who continue to have symptoms as adults with significant impact on their quality of life. The exact cause is unknown, but genetics are considered a key factor.

Topical corticosteroids (such as hydrocortisone, betamethasone, and fluticasone) are the most common treatment for atopic dermatitis. As eczema tends to be persistent, most people will have to use topical steroids on and off for many years. If used continuously topical steroids may lose their effectiveness after a few weeks. This is known as tachyphylaxis.
