Patient's question:
My friend is 30 years old this year. Recently, she developed red spots on her body. She thought it was an allergy and didn't pay much attention. However, the red spots turned into rashes, and some of them became inflamed. She quickly went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the result was lupus. How can lupus be completely cured?Doctor's answer:
For example, conditions like (), heart failure, and encephalitis, patients should pay attention to sun protection, use cytotoxic drugs and hormone drugs to control symptoms. Systemic lupus erythematosus can only be controlled with medication. However, it cannot be cured, as it is a chronic autoimmune disease. The standard treatment for systemic lupus erythematosus can be very effective, but if not controlled properly, it can accumulate in various systems. You should use hormone-induced remission and monitor drug side effects. Most patients need lifelong medication treatment. Long-term treatment with slow-acting anti-rheumatic drugs such as hydroxychloroquine, cyclosporine, and cyclophosphamide is required. Blood tests and liver and kidney function tests should be repeated periodically.
