It is necessary to warn patients about the possibility of developing bullous dermatitis with a combination of irradiation of lesions with a mercury-quartz lamp and exposure to solar radiation. The prescribed exposure regimen must be strictly observed.
During treatment, it is recommended to wear sun glasses during the day.
In the summer months, in order to avoid the combined effects of artificial and natural UV radiation, it is recommended to combine treatment with dosed exposure to sunlight.
