Driving

Driving

Methoxsalen lotion is not expected to affect driving, but ultraviolet treatment may temporarily affect comfort or vision. Follow your clinic's advice.

Directions for Use

For external use only, apply on healthy skin free from cuts and wounds. Use the lotion only as directed before controlled ultraviolet A treatment. Wash your hands after use and protect treated skin and eyes from unplanned sunlight.

Storage and disposal

Store the lotion in the original container, tightly closed and protected from heat and direct light. Keep it out of the reach of children. Dispose of unused lotion as advised by a pharmacist.

Quick Tips

  • Use methoxsalen only with the ultraviolet treatment arranged by your doctor.
  • Protect your eyes and treated skin from unplanned sunlight as instructed.
  • Report severe burning, blistering, or unusual skin changes promptly.

Dosage

Overdose

Using too much methoxsalen lotion followed by ultraviolet light can cause severe redness, burning, or blistering. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed an application or light-treatment appointment, contact your treating clinic. If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one. Do not apply extra lotion or arrange extra ultraviolet exposure to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Methoxsalen makes treated skin more responsive to controlled ultraviolet A light. This can help restore colour in vitiligo and slow excess skin-cell growth in psoriasis.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines and skin products can increase sensitivity to ultraviolet light. Tell your doctor about all medicines, supplements and herbal products you use. In particular, mention other light-sensitive medicines, perfumes, aftershaves, and medicated skin products.
