Drug and food interactions
methoxsalen food
Applies to: methoxsalen
GENERALLY AVOID: The ingestion of foods containing photosensitizing components (e.g., limes, figs, parsley, parsnips, rue (Ruta graveolens), mustard, carrots and celery) may increase the risk of photosensitivity and severe burning during methoxsalen therapy. Two cases of photosensitivity involving rue and a soup containing celery, parsley, and parsnip have been reported in PUVA patients.
MANAGEMENT: Patients who are undergoing PUVA treatment and taking methoxsalen should be advised to avoid eating large quantities of these foods.
