Naproxen, a common anti-inflammatory drug, can cause a distinctive photodermatitis in children, especially those with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Discontinuing naproxen resolved most symptoms, highlighting the need for vigilance regarding photosensitivity in pediatric patients.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Dermatology
  • Pharmacology
  • Rheumatology

Background:

  • Naproxen is a widely used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for managing pain and inflammation in children.
  • Prolonged NSAID use can present with various dermatological side effects.
  • Photodermatitis, an adverse skin reaction to sunlight, requires careful evaluation in pediatric patients.
