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.
