I am currently taking 1000 mg of Cefuroxine daily. My husband and I are getting ready to take a trip to sunny spain for vacation. I am worried about having adverse reactions to the sun. Does it cause sun sensitivity? It didn't say anything on my container, but wanted to be sure.

Anyone know?

Avril has been out in the sun as much as possible since starting on it and had no adverse reactions.

I have been on it since June and have not noticed any increased sun sensitivity.

I have been out in the sun at the beach and park with my daughter and I just make sure that I am diligent about applying sunscreen every 2 hours...more frequently if I am in the water.

I think you will be fine as long as you take the proper precautions.

Good Luck!

I switch from doxy to ceftin in the summertimes. You'll be okay.
