Weather of Arabia - Most people can enjoy the sun all year round, but when taking some medications, life in the sun can sometimes be less pleasant.

These ingredients cause a chemical change in the skin, making a person sensitive to sunlight and can cause sunburn-like symptoms, rashes, or other unwanted side effects. It can be caused by products applied to the skin or by oral or injectable medications.
