Thank you Rena for giving this great reminder to everyone to read the warnings to the medications we are taking.
I think sometimes we all forget to make sure we research what were taking and make sure that we find out if there is anything we shouldnt be doing while taking the medication. Especially during the summer months!
I really hope you legs are alot better today and the blisters and pain are healing and going away

Voltarin and Mobic (anti-inflammatories) both caused me to be super sun sensitive. The Voltarin came with a warning on the prescription bottle, but the Mobic didn't. With the Mobic, I got a light sunburn and ended up breaking out in sun poisoning.
Thanks for the warning reminder!
Hi, Rena705.
Thank you for letting everyone know about this. This is an excellent post! We all have things we know that would be beneficial to others and it's great to see members posting these kinds of things!
I have experienced this too, I was on elavil for awhile for my fibromyalgia and was unaware of the sun sensitivity.The Dr seen I was a person who enjoys a tan and did not warn me and got in the tanning bed, a usual thing for me to do and because I go a lot I stay in for the maximum time allowed. The first day after I started this drug I went to the tanning spa and boy! was I burned. My husband got so upset he told me to stay out of them. Well I came about this information the painful way so thanks to your post someone else will be spared our pain. Thanks!
