Hello, Chipmunk! How are you?

I'm sorry, but there is no definitive answer that I can give you for this question.

Most medications can make you more sensitive to the effects of the sun and heat, so you may burn, dehydrate and overheat faster than usual, but there's no specific time frame that can be applied to everyone.

For instance, some people can be out in the son for hours, without having any problems or becoming sunburnt, but for others, it may be just 10 or 15 minutes, until they start to experience issues…. and that time frame may be lessened by a medication, such as this. Thus, it tends to be a highly individualized thing.

Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, mood swings and weight gain.

The best thing to do is to use a strong sun screen and make sure to keep yourself hydrated, and not to spend too long out in the sun and heat.

Is there anything else I can help with?
