Certain mental health medications can make you more sensitive to sunlight. Now is a good reminder about the importance of using sunscreen with SPF50.

Wear protective clothing where possible & seek shade if outside. Your team can help with any questions & provide SPF50 if needed.

In this hot weather, we know people may be worried about medications getting too warm. Make sure you store your medicines safely, so they don't lose their effects. Usually medicines should be below 25, so if it's too hot, you can refrigerate them. Always read the instructions.
