Balancing Hydroxychloroquine Use for COVID-19 and Lupus

balancing-hydroxychloroquine-use-for-covid-19-and-lupusRecent promotion by several countries, including the United States, of hydroxychloroquine as an effective treatment for COVID-19 has left patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus) facing a severe shortage of the medication they rely on. How should rheumatologists balance the supply of hydroxychloroquine for testing and potential use in COVID-19 with its critical use in the treatment of lupus? How should they allocate the drug to their patients?

Rosalind Ramsey-Goldman, MD, discusses key considerations for rheumatologists in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the risks for patients with rheumatic conditions such as lupus and how Northwestern Medicine Rheumatology is evolving care.
