Sun sensitivity is normal when you are taking these types of medications.

Sun sensitivity is one thing, but red face and hands, blistering of toes and itchcy scalp are unpleasent.
I have been on voriconizole or six months and my consultant told me to take a two weeks break; after ten days there is no improvement and my itchy forehead is driving me mad.

Just finished my first 4 months on Vori after being unable to take Itraconazole last year. Have tolerated Vori much better. Docs are monitoring my IgE levels monthly and if the IgE score stays dropping then maybe I will not have to take Vori soon or maybe much later in time. But the Docs have warned me that taking Vori along with the always awful prednisone will mostly likely be a lifetime issue for me. The scalp and facial itching drives me crazy!!!!!!
