Fact of the day.....
Have you heard of Drug-induced lupus??
Drug-induced lupus is caused by a reaction with certain prescription
drugs and causes symptoms very similar to SLE. The drugs most commonly
associated with this form of
lupus are a hypertension medication called hydralazine and a heart
arrhythmia medication called procainamide, but there are some 400 other
drugs that can also cause the
condition. Drug-induced lupus is known to subside after the patient
stops taking the triggering medication.
