Flecenaide

[Isophie]

Have been on flecenaide for 6 months with no issues. Recently though I got extremely sunburned and suspected flecenaide as the culprit. Looked it up and there was the warning....this drug can cause sun sensitivity. My question is, has anyone successfully gone from being on this drug twice a day to a pill in the pocket approach? Thank you
