Anti-Laser Antibiotics!

[moninosis]

I've been taking this medication and I just noticed earlier today, one of the warning labels says: "You should AVOID prolonged or excessive exposure to direct and/or artificial SUNLIGHT while taking this medication"

Second from the top label:

I have been known to stare at the dot..

Would a few hours in front of a computer or tv be a violation?

any insight?

Some drugs sensitize the skin, and excessive exposure to the full spectrum of sunlight can be harmful, but not a monitor or a laser dot

It's the UV part of the sunlight which is normally harmful, then if this medication is making your skin more sensitive, it's even more harmful

Exactly, its usually about skin sentization, not about your eyes getting more light sensitive (unless these are eye drops or something similar).

I would recommend against directly shining a laser onto your skin, especially when its a bluray. Normally this wouldn't be recommended to do in the first place, but in this case it could potentially be more dangerous.
