I don't know about tanning. My husband does phototherapy while on Enbrel. It's kinda like tanning, but a ton more intense. Check the pamphlet that came with the precription. If you don't have it, get on their website, www.enbrel.com, and they have it on there. But just glancing through the pamphlet, I do not see any info that it increases skin sensitivity. You may want to check with your dermotologist.

You can always do a spray tan, they are weird, but you get instant results.

Good Luck!

If it doesn't bother your psoriasis, then why not?
