UV Safety Month | Always protect your skin!
To protect your skin from the sun’s damaging UVA and UVB rays, follow these rules: Use a “broadscreen” sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and reapply it often if you are out in midday, in the mountains or southern climates, or if swimming or sweating heavily. For extra protection, wear long-sleeved shirts, sunglasses, and a broad-brimmed hat. These same rules can also help reduce your risk of developing a sunburn-like rash and other effects if you’re taking “photosensitive” drugs like antibiotics, antihistamines, statins, or are using cosmetics that contain retinoids. Talk to your healthcare professional or pharmacist if you have concerns.
