Introduction
Anti-inflammatory drugs
Cortocosteroids
Anti-malarials
Cytotoxic, or immunosuppressive, drugd
Investigational (research) drugs:
Hormone modifications
More selective immunosuppressive
Biologic agents
Klippel John H, et.all. Medications. Lupus Fondation of Amerika
Anti Inflammatory Drugs
Anti-inflammatory medication are the most
commonly used drugs for lupus treatment,
particularly for symptoms such as:
o Fever
o Arthritis, or
o Pleurisy
Improvement in symptoms is generally noted
within several days of beginning treatment
In the majority of people with lupus, anti-
inflammatory drugs are the only medication
that is ever required to control their lupus
Types of anti malarials

Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil)
Chloroquine (aralen)
Quinacrine (atabrine)

Gluck O, Anti-Malarials in The Treatment of Lupus, Lupus Foundation of America. 2001


Anti - malarials are:
Muscle and joint pain
Inflammation of the lining of
the heart (pericarditis)
Inflammation of the lining of
the lung (pleuritis)
Other symptoms of lupus such
as fatigue and fever

Gluck O, Anti-Malarials in The Treatment of Lupus, Lupus Foundation of America. 2001


Anti malarials
Other side effects can include:
Hair loss
Dry skin
Loss of appetite
Abdominal bloating
Upset stomach
Stomach cramps
Nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea

Gluck O, Anti-Malarials in The Treatment of Lupus, Lupus Foundation of America. 2001


Corticosteroid
Corticosteroids are extremely effective anti-
inflammatory agents and can be very helpful in
treating
Treatment with steroids should always be kept
at the lowest possible effective dose and should
never be stopped suddenly
The hope is that effective alternative therapies
will soon be developed which will not be as toxic
as steroids
The history of most therapies shows, however,
that those which are extremely effective often are
associated with side effects. This is certainly the
case with steroids
Katz R.S. Steroids In The Treatment of Lupus. Lupus Foundation of America, 2001
Important Anti-Inflammatory and
Immunosuppresive Effects of Glucocorticoids
Anti-inflammatory Effects
1. Inhibition of blood vessel dilatation and
permeability
2. Inhibition of neutrophil and monocyte
migration to periphery
3. Inhibition of synthesis of inflammatory
mediators such as eicosanoids by
downregulating phospholipase A2 and COX-2
4. Downregulation of destructive enzymes
5. Alteration of cytokine balance in favor of
anti-inflammatory cytokines whereas
proinflammatory cytokines are suppressed

Which Medication are Right for My Lupus

1. The type and severity of lupus


symptoms
2. The persons response to treatment
3. Risks of drug side effects

Katz R.S. Steroids In The Treatment of Lupus. Lupus Foundation of America, 2001
Immunosuppressive effects
1. Lymphopenia
2. Inhibition of signal transduction events critical
for T-cell activation
3. Inhibition of IL2 synthesis and signaling
4. Downregulation of cell surface molecules
important for full T-cell activation and function
5. Inhibition of antigen-presenting cell function.
Depletion of plasmacytoid dendritic cells and
production of interferon-alpha
6. Deviation of immune responses towards a Th2-
type cytokine formation
7. Induction of T-cell apoptosis
Wallace J Daniel & Hahn Hannahs Bevra : Dubois lupus Erythematosus, Seventh Edition, Lippincot
Williams & Wilkins 2007
Prednisone
It may be givens as often as four times each day,
as frequently as once every other day, or at any
frequency

Dose Miligrams
Low Less than 10 mg daily
Moderate 11 to 40 mg daily
High 41 to 100 mg daily

Occasionally, very large doses of steroids may be


given for a short period of time. This treatment,
referred to as pulse steroids
Katz R.S. Steroids In The Treatment of Lupus. Lupus Foundation of America, 2001
Prednisone
Prednisone is an extremely effective drug may be
necessary to control active lupus
Those individuals with organ-threatening diseases
(i.e., heart, lung, kidney, liver) usually need
steroids in order to prevent loss of function in the
organ.
People who tolerate steroids poorly or do not
respond optimally often benefit from the addition
of steroid-sparing of immune suppressive drugs

occur with high doses of steroids
5. Prednisone may aggravate:
Diabetes
Glaucoma
High blood pressure
6. Prednisone often increases levels of:
Cholesterol
Triglycerides
7. Steroids also can suppress growth in children

Retinal damage that is caused
by Plaquenil is sometimes
reversible if it is detected early.
However, damage due to the
use of chloroquine (Aralen) is
irreversible

Gluck O, Anti-Malarials in The Treatment of Lupus, Lupus Foundation of America. 2001


When Should My Doctor Prescribe
Immunosuppressive Drugs?
These drugs are generally reserved for
people with more serious manifestations of
lupus, such as lupus nephritis or neurologic
disease, in whom treatment with
corticosteroids has failed

It is very important that cytotoxic drugs


only be given by physicians who are
experienced with the use of these
medications
Katz. R.S. Immune Suppressants and Related Drugs Used for Lupus
Cytotoxic (Immunosuppressive drugs)

Azathioprine (brand name: Imuran)


Cyclophosphamide (brand name:
Cytoxan)
Methotrexate (brand name: Rheumatrex)
Cyclosporin (brand name: Sandimmune,
Neoral)

Katz. R.S. Immune Suppressants and Related Drugs Used for Lupus
IMURAN
Prolong life
Preserve kidney function
Reduce disease symptoms
Reduce damage to vital organs, such
as the kidney and lungs
Sometimes even serve to put the
disease info remission

Katz. R.S. Immune Suppressants and Related Drugs Used for Lupus
Cytoxan (Cyclophosphamide)
An increasing risk of developing malignancies, including
leukimia and bladder cancer, with long-term Cytoxan
use
Temporary or permanent sterility in both women and
men
Leading to damage of a developing fetus if a woman gets
pregnant while being treated with the drug
Bleeding from the bladder-this usually can be prevented
by drinking large amounts of water
Causing a prediposition to develop shingles
Hair loss
Like Imuran, causing a prediposition to develop unusual
infections, particularly when given in combination with
high doses of steroids
Katz. R.S. Immune Suppressants and Related Drugs Used for Lupus
Immunosuppressive Side Effects
The drugs have a major effect on cells produced by the
bone marrow, including:
o White blood cells
o Red blood cells
o Platelets
Thus, people treated with cytotoxic drugs must have
regular complete blood counts (CBCs) to make certain
that levels of these cells do not become too low
In addition, cytotoxic drugs reduce a persons ability to
fight off infections
Those receiving cytotoxic drugs are more likely to
contract viral infections such as shingles (herpes zoster)
Katz. R.S. Immune Suppressants and Related Drugs Used for Lupus
Possible Risk Cytotoxic Drugs
The immune system may be suppressed too
much, which causes an increased susceptibility
to infection, particularly shingles (a painful,
blistering skin condition) and pneumonia
The bone marrow can be suppressed as well,
which results in reduction in red blood cells,
white blood cells, or clot-forming platelets
Suppression of hair cell growth may lead to
overall lost of hair
The cytotoxic effects on gonadal cells can lead
sterility
