How to Prepare? Medication and Hygiene Before the Test
Avoid exposing your skin to ultraviolet rays for several weeks before the planned tests. Refrain from sunbathing and visiting tanning salons during this time. Two weeks before patch tests, stop taking antihistamines, anti-inflammatory, and pain-relief medications. Ensure at least two weeks have passed since the end of any antibiotic therapy. Your skin should be clean and dry before the test.
