I was on benlysta auto injections for around 2 years. I was having relief especially in the winter when it’s cold in NY. Once covid hit and I wanted to get vaccinated so I had weaned myself off of it because my doc said I shouldn’t mix it with the vaccine . It really helped me and now I’m suffering again and I’m considering going back on it . I didn’t have any side effects . Just keep in mind it takes about 5 months for it to take affect .

I had 17 months of benlysta infusion and my rhuemy then had me predicated with 1000mg of Tylenol, 40 mg of solumedrol and 125 benadryl due to so many allergies. It helped put my lupus in remission. Hope this helps you.
