Byline: Shahzana Naqqash, Faria Asad and Sabrina Suhail Pal - Email: dr_shahzana_naqqash@hotmail.com Abstract Background Chronic actinic dermatitis (CAD) is a rare intractable photosensitive predominantly eczematous eruption sometimes with infiltrated plaques on the exposed areas and has a tendency to progress to erythroderma. Along with sun protection, the use of corticosteroids gives only partial response and is associated with many unwanted effects. There are promising reports of usefulness of azathioprine in the treatment of CAD.
