Photosensitizing medications can cause adverse reactions when treating the skin with medical grade chemical peels or with laser light energies. Such adverse results include hyper-pigmentation, IGE mediated responses, and possibly hypo-pigmentation (loss of pigmentation). This list of potentially photosensitizing medications is a comprehensive listing of medications but may not be all encumbering. New medications are continually being introduced or current medications are being revised, please use this reference as a quick reference guide for patients taking such types of medications.
