Women can be said to be the main group of patients with lupus erythematosus. Because it is an autoimmune disease, it is difficult to cure even if they actively cooperate with the treatment. However, for lupus patients, it is still possible to control the disease to a stable level through treatment and conditioning. Therefore, don’t worry about how long you can live after suffering from lupus. If you actively cooperate with treatment, you can still live well. 1. General treatment (1) We should have strong confidence in fighting the disease. (2) Avoid sun exposure, especially those who are sensitive to sunlight. When going out, you should pay attention to sun protection and avoid using photosensitizing drugs such as phenothiazines, hydrochlorothiazide, sulfonamides and griseofulvin. (3) Avoid overwork. Patients with acute or active SLE should rest in bed. Avoid pregnancy and do not take contraceptives. Those with renal damage or multiple system damage should have early therapeutic abortion if contraception fails. (4) Avoid catching cold or other infections. (5) Enhance immunity and pay attention to nutrition and vitamin supplementation. 2. Treatment of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (1) Systemic treatment: ① Antimalarial drugs such as hydroxychloroquine, reduce the dose to half after the condition improves. The total course of treatment is generally 2 to 3 years. ② Thalidomide can be tried. After the therapeutic effect is shown, the drug dosage can be reduced and the treatment can be continued for 3 to 5 months. It is effective in most patients, but relapse is likely to occur when the drug is stopped. ③For generalized cases, small doses of hormones can be taken orally. (2) Local treatment: Apply topical glucocorticoid ointment twice a day or seal the area. Or intralesional injection of corticosteroids. 3. Treatment of SLE Personalization is very important. Before starting treatment for SLE patients, the disease activity of SLE patients must be evaluated, such as antinuclear antibodies, anti-DNA antibodies and hypocomplementemia, and the degree of organ damage, such as heart, kidney, lung lesions, skin and serositis, etc., and a correct evaluation must be made before treatment is started. Systemic lupus erythematosus (LE) is a typical autoimmune connective tissue disease, which is more common in women aged 15 to 40 years old. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE), neonatal lupus erythematosus (NLE), and drug-induced lupus erythematosus (DIL) are subtypes of lupus erythematosus. |
