Sunburn Travelers to tropical areas are exposed to intense sunlight and dry conditions. The major cause of sunburn is exposure to ultraviolet B radiation. To block harmful radiation, travelers are advised to use a sunscreen containing para-aminobenzoic acid with a sun protection factor of at least 15. They should also wear long-sleeved, loose (preferably cotton) clothing; a wide-brimmed hat; and lip balm for dry or cracked lips. Infants and the elderly are particularly at risk and should be protected adequately. Persons taking certain medications (eg, sulfonamides, tetracycline, doxycycline, chlorothiazide [Diurigen, Diuril], phenothiazines, furosemide [Lasix], amiodarone hydrochloride [Cordarone], psoralens, nalidixic acid [NegGram], naproxen) may have an exaggerated sunburn response. Sunglasses with wraparound lenses should also be worn to protect the eyes against harmful ultraviolet radiation.
