Mesalazine (also known as Mesalamine) is a bowel specific anti-inflammatory drug used to treat inflammation of the digestive tract ulcerative colitis and mild-to-moderate Crohn's disease.
It is not an antibiotic and does not affect normal intestinal flora.
There is no need to avoid sunlight while taking Mesalazine - check with your pharmacist.
