“…There are well documented reports of "exaggerated sunburn" and photo-distributed rash in patients taking voriconazole, who are usually immunosuppressed (161)(162)(163)(164). Severe phototoxicity was reported in 8-10% of subjects (165)(166)(167)(168) and even higher rates in patients with cystic fibrosis (169,170), particularly this was photosensitivity to the UVA part of the spectrum (161).…”
