ULI OSTERWALDER: The gap in UVA protection can be filled with BASF’s Tinosorb M , Tino- sorb S and Uvinul A Plus.

  • Sun Protection
    DRUG NEWS Recommending the Best Sun Protection Clinical Pearls: o Recommend a “broad-spectrum” sunscreen – one that covers UVB, UVA1, and UVA2. o Recommend SPF 30-50 o Advise on non-pharmacological sun protection methods o Emphasize proper sunscreen application technique o Emphasize skin protection when taking drugs known to cause photosensitivity. Familiarize yourself with known implicated drugs by referring to appendix 2. Background 1-4 The sun emits 3 types of ultraviolet (UV) radiation: UVC (100-290 nm), UVB (290-320 nm), and UVA (320 -400 nm). UVA rays can be further divided into the shorter UVA2 rays and the longer UVA1 rays. UVC rays, the shortest rays, are completely absorbed by the ozone layer, whereas UVB rays penetrate the epidermis and UVA rays, the longest rays, penetrate into the dermis. The main consequence of UVB irradiation is sunburn, but can also include immunosuppression and skin cancer. Consequences of UVA radiation include: phototoxicity (i.e. involvement in drug-induced sun sensitivity reactions), photo-aging, immunosuppression, and skin cancer. What is SPF? 2,5,6,7 It is easy to be misled by Sun Protection Factors (SPF). SPF is assessed through a standardized test by finding the ratio of the minimal dose of solar radiation that produces perceptible erythema (i.e., minimal erythema dose) on sunscreen-protected skin compared with unprotected skin. Sunburn is caused primarily by UVB rays (and shorter UVA2 rays), and thus SPF indicates mostly UVB protection. However, UVA protection is equally important since it is responsible for photo-aging and cancer. Therefore, it is important to look for the phrase “broad spectrum” when choosing a sunscreen as broad spectrum indicates both UVB and UVA protection.
