I have been on phen for 5 days now. I spend a lot of time out in the sun at the pool with the kids. I never burn and tan really well. Yestarday was my first day out since starting. I spent at most 2 hours out in the sun and I am terribly sunburned. Does the meds have an affect on my skin and be why I burned so bad. :confused:

thanks
Margaret

I believe meds can have something to do with getting sunburn, but I am not sure. I usually burn if I am in the sun too much so I dont really recognize the difference in burning with or without phen. I hope you find an answer

Phentermine makes skin very sensative to the sun. I have to use tons of sunscreen. It dont make me burn, but I get tiny little blisters all over my arms with to much exposure.
