There are many medications that can induce several symptoms that overlap with those of SLE, and that are gone after the end of the therapy (muscle pain, joint pain, fatigue, fever etc). Then again, there are drugs that can really cause the emerging of SLE (usually those medications used for long-term therapies, such as Pronestil, Apresoline and
Quinidine). These are just three of almost 40 medications known to induce
lupus.
