Is this information on immunosuppressives only for people with lupus kidney disease?
- Most research on immunosuppressive treatments for lupus focused on kidney disease.
- The same treatments are used for treatment of serious lupus disease in other parts of the body, including the heart, lung and brain.
- The next few screens present the effects of immunosuppressive treatments for kidneys, but most information also applies to other forms of serious lupus disease.
- Other treatments are discussed later in this guide.
