Your friend needs to see a doctor and have some lab work checked to be certain this is not adrenal insufficiency. If it is adrenal insufficiency, the tan will get better once this is treated. An unexplained persistent tan needs to be evaluated so have your friend see a doctor ASAP. Best of luck to you and your friend.
