Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Photoallergic reaction test
During the Induction Phase, participants received Butenafine HCl 1% on the treated irradiated skin test site followed by UV irradiation and on the treated non-irradiated skin test site without UV radiation, two times per week for three consecutive weeks. After 10 days of Rest Phase, during the Challenge Phase, participants received same procedure on the two virgin sites (treated sites) as in Induction Phase, and two additional sites with no Butenafine HCl 1% (untreated sites) were also occluded. Test sites were evaluated at 24, 48, and 72 hours after irradiation using the same grading scale used during Induction Phase.
