I have noticed some of my medications (usually psych meds) have warnings on the instruction sheets not to get too much sun or not to overheat? I agree in general, this is never a good idea for anyone, but why the warnings on the medication sheets? What happens if you do get too much heat or sun? Are you more prone to sunstroke or something? I never asked my pdoc or pharmacist why.
