Certain prescription meds can raise your risk for skin cancer!
Because they’re photosensitizers - which make the skin more vulnerable to UV light. Two common types are heart and acne meds. And researchers at Dartmouth say taking them for at least 6 months makes you 50% more likely to develop skin cancer. So, see if your pills say: “Stay out of the sun.” And if they ARE photosensitizers, ask your doctor for something similar that won’t make you more vulnerable to UV light.
