customer has question about medication - tanTALK

Gracie · 02-26-2010, 11:15 AM

We had a client call this morning and tell us that she wants to start tanning for the season but she is taking medication for anxiety. On the bottle it says avoid long exposure to the sun, we checked our medication list and it wasn't on there. Any suggestions on what to tell her?

Just because it's not on the list, does not mean it's okay to tan. Have her talk to her doctor prior to tanning.

If doc approves her to come in, start her off very slow to reduce risk.

Thanks DB...usually our clients just don't tan when they are on meds like that. Just wanted to double check on that.

I don't know why I crack up at a pill for anxiety. Not sure what that has to do with anything...but just had to say that.

Going away now.
