In this study researchers want to gather information about the potential of Antifungal Cream V61-044 containing Trolamine to produce a phototoxic reaction on the skin. A phototoxic reaction is an irritant reaction of the skin to ultra violet light. In order to find this out the study drug will be applied to the skin of healthy human subjects. By using a solar simulator to generate a UV spectrum similar to that of sunlight the potential of the study drug to produce a superficial reddening of the skin will be measured.

Phototoxic Reaction Evaluation Reported as Number of Test Site With Different Erythema Score
Evaluation of the test sites after irradiation used following scoring system: score 0=Normal skin; score 1=Faint, barely perceptible to moderate redness with poorly defined margins (not clinically significant); score 2=Moderate to intense redness with well defined margins; score 3=Redness plus well defined edema; score 4=Redness plus papules, vesicles, or ulceration. All four test sites were evaluated for gross changes according to the Erythemal Scoring Scale and if necessary the Additional Scoring system immediately before irradiation, 24 hours after irradiation, and 48 hours after irradiation (3 different time points), thus for each type of test site (i.e. treated irradiated test site), a total of 87 test sites with scores were collected (i.e., 29 participants \*3 time points = 87 sites).
Time frame: Immediately before irradiation, 24 hours after irradiation, and 48 hours after irradiation
Development of Erythema on the Treated Non-irradiated Test Sites, Which Would Indicate Irritant Contact Dermatitis and a Pre-existing Allergic Contact Dermatitis
Evaluation of the test sites after irradiation used following scoring system: score 0=Normal skin; score 1=Faint, barely perceptible to moderate redness with poorly defined margins (not clinically significant); score 2=Moderate to intense redness with well defined margins; score 3=Redness plus well defined edema; score 4=Redness plus papules, vesicles, or ulceration. All four test sites were evaluated for gross changes according to the Erythemal Scoring Scale and if necessary the Additional Scoring system immediately before irradiation, 24 hours after irradiation, and 48 hours after irradiation (3 different time points), thus for each type of test site (i.e. treated irradiated test site), a total of 87 test sites with scores were collected (i.e., 29 participants \*3 time points = 87 sites).
Time frame: Immediately before irradiation, 24 hours after irradiation, and 48 hours after irradiation
