It is the premarin honey that is def one med that you are not supposed to go in the sun on. It should say it on the bottle. A nurse at work told me that she didn't realize why she was suddenly burning in the tanning salon and she looked at her premarin and there it was right on the bottle.

I would see if there is something else you could switch to. ALso remember some herbal stuff can do it, like St s wart.

Ang, here's my meds list:

Claritan 10 mg. since 1997 to presentSudafed (was taking up to 8 a day, now 1 pill.)Premarin 1.25 mg since 1992Xanax .25 mg (was taking up to 3 a day, now 1/2 pill in morning)Vitamins E, C, A & D, ZincPresently taking Lortab 7.5 for pain (1-2 a day)At the time of the burning episodes(tanning) I was NOT taking any antibiotics. I believe I did not take any for a few weeks before either. When I did have all my sinus infections, I was too sick to lay in the sun. I woud just stay inside & be in bed.Maybe you'll spot the meds in my list that could make me not tan easily anymore. I did tell my PCP about the sun episodes & he thought it was immune system related. He didn't mention meds. But that doesn't say anything, as all these doctors overlooked the fact I had silicone implants in (since 1985) which I wrote on my chart.Thanks,

If it's the Premerin, then why didn't I burn before 1999? I have been

taking premerin since 1992 & never burned. Also in 1999, is when those

" bumps " started on my chest area & " stretch mark lines " in cleavage. I

think that's when my rupture actually occurred. And one day I'll find

out why I had the severe pain during those 7 weeks. As for the Premarin;

I am checking into another med; supplier keeps running out & I have a

hard time getting Rx filled thru mail order ins. I think the docs don't

want to prescribe anything else cause they all have stock in

it!!!...
