| Abstract;Many drugs have been incriminated in phototoxic and photoallergic responses. The responsible wave length spectrum for most of the drug induced photosensitivity falls on UVA. However, sometimes UVB or visible light is also responsible. So, in order to prevent drug-induced photosensitivity, only a highly protective UVA+UVB broad spectrum sunscreen may allow continual use. In this study, evaluation of UVA+UVB broad spectrum sunscreens are done and Antehlios XL was found to be highly protective against phototoxic reaction caused by olrugs in terms of clinical score and colorimetric measurement without any side effects.
