General Recommendations for Sun Protection in Rosacea Patients
- Avoid the sun (between 10 am - 3pm).
- Use sunscreen (UVA/UVB - SPF 15 or higher).
- Wear a hat with a 3 inch brim (protects neck, ears, eyes and scalp).
- Wear sunglasses (protects eyes).
- Cover up (sun protective clothing, long sleeved shirts, pants). Avoid artificial tanning (tanning beds, sun lamps).
- Check skin regularly (dry, scaly, reddish, and slightly raised lesions).
- If you are taking medications, your doctor or pharmacist should be consulted to see if the medications will sensitize the skin to the sun and aggravate sunburn or rashes.
- Common drugs which may do this are certain antibiotics, birth control pills, diuretics, antihistamines and antidepressants.
