dc.description.abstractPeople aged 65+ are generally polymedicated. In this age group, it is important to be aware of the potential for drug-induced photosensitivity. Sunscreen use is an effective way to prevent sun damage to the skin. Our study aimed to evaluate sunscreen use habits in 104 non-institutionalized elderly people aged 65 years and older and the taking/use of photosensitizing medications. It was concluded that all but one of the elderly take photosensitizing drugs but do not use sunscreen regularly. Although all therapies were prescribed or advised by health professionals, virtually all the elderly stated that they did not receive advice on this matter.pt_PT
