🩺 Clinical
Light Day Sunscreen SPF 37 is an over-the-counter lotion applied to the skin to help protect against sunburn. It contains three active ingredients, avobenzone, octinoxate, and octocrylene, which are UV filters commonly used in sunscreen products to absorb ultraviolet radiation from the sun. This product is marketed as an OTC monograph drug, meaning it follows FDA's established safety and effectiveness rules for the sunscreen category rather than being reviewed as an individual new drug application.
