Abstract

Pharmacopoeia encompasses a wide spectrum of molecules known to have a photosensitizing effect.1 Both experimental and epidemiologic studies suggest that photosensitizing drugs, especially antihypertensive agents, may influence the incidence of skin cancer. The objective of our study was to investigate a possible association between the intake of photosensitizing drugs and Breslow thickness (BT) among melanoma patients.
