Consumer:Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.MONITOR: Concomitant use of aminolevulinate topical preparations with other known photosensitizing agents may enhance the phototoxic reaction to photodynamic therapy. Medicinal products with known phototoxic or photoallergic potential include fluoroquinolones, phenothiazines, retinoids, sulfonamides, sulfonylureas, tetracyclines, thiazide diuretics, griseofulvin, and hypericin extracts (e.g., St John's Wort).
