    Who Can Safely Stop Steroids in Lupus? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Corticosteroids remain among the most effective agents for rapidly bringing inflammation under control in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). But the treatment goal has shifted: Rather than keeping patients on the lowest possible dose for years, clinicians now aim to use steroids only as long as needed and discontinue them when disease activity permits. That reflects one of rheumatology’s key priorities, given the cumulative risks of long-term therapy, including osteoporosis, cataracts, diabetes
