Great info thanks

My brother-in-law was just at my home for a visit. He kept complaining of heat and sun sensitivity. He takes antihistamines and a number of other medications. I immediately thought of the photosensitivity issue tied to many medications and suggested he check with his pharmacist/healthcare provider.
