Therapeutically,chronic actinicdermatitis is a problematic condition. Frequently applied sunscreen usually fails to mitigate the clinical symptoms, and steroids-while efficient-exert many undesired side-effects with prolonged usage. We present a case of chronic actinic dermatitis responding well to topically applied tacrolimus (Protopic.) in combination with chemical and physical UV protection.
