Abstract

Introduction Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a very very heterogeneous disease that can affect multiple organs with differing degrees of severity, so it is important to know and manage the different therapeutic agents available to treat the different clinical manifestations; we must know their indications, posology and possible adverse effects in order to conduct an efficient and secure treatment. Treatment Treatment protocols for SLE, within the different clinical manifestations where they are applied, follow the goal of achieving remission of the disease, avoiding the exacerbations with maintenance therapies and preventing comorbidities, in order to preserve functioning of all implicated organs. Conclusions Good management of these therapies for the different and heterogeneous clinical manifestations were lupus is present will contribute to increasing quality of life and life expectancy in these patients, and also avoid comorbidities.
