Is Plaquenil and/or Xarelto medications likely to make me photosensitive? They were flagged during hair removal.

CMcG
I take plaquenil for connective tissue disease and xarelto for previous venous thrombosis... I was doing laser without problem but when I updated medical history both meds were flagged ...no more hair removal ;-( Why do the meds appear on list? I have a serious/obvious hair growth on chin. If I try in armpit and no trouble... is it safe to think wont be a problem on my chin?
