I mean Im BURNT to a crisp....u would think Ive been in the sun for days....this is terrible....anyone else going thru this or gone thru it before??

When I'm on antibiotics I burn really bad.

Right now I'm on the same dose of Pentasa as you and go out in the sun a lot and I haven't gotten burnt at all. I always wear 30 spf when I go out, but haven't had any problems. I'm also on Humira and some people say that that makes them sensitive to the sun, but I really haven't had any problems.

Sorry you got so burnt! Hopefully it will go away quick for you.
