The Effect of Benzophenone Sunscreen Lotion on Chlorpromazine-Treated Patients
Abstract
The protective effect of benzophenone lotion against ultraviolet irradiation was demonstrated with ten patients on chlorpromazine and ten controls taking no medication. All patients had histories of increased sensitivity to sunlight. Results indicate that benzophenone lotion was effective as a sunscreen and appears to have a useful place in psychiatry, where the use of phenothiazine derivates is extensive.
