Overview

Differentiating Drug-Induced Lupus Erythematosus from other Diseases

As a reminder, rheumatologic conditions tend to declare themselves over time, as opposed to immediately displaying all the classic clinical manifestations of the disease.

There is an inherited difficulty in distinguishing true drug-induced autoimmunity from an exacerbation of pre-existing autoimmunity or unmasking of a second autoimmune disease. It will become even more important to recognize medication-induced lupus syndromes given the expanding list of medications associated with DIL.

Here are possible differentials to DIL:

  • Idiopathic systemic lupus erythematosus
  • Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma)
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Connective tissue diseases
  • Granulomatosis with polyangiitis
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Lichen planus
  • Chronic radiation dermatitis
  • Rosacea
  • Psoriasis
  • Dermatomyositis
  • Granuloma annulare
  • Actinic keratosis
