While side effects can seem scary at first, many MyLupusTeam members have successfully used azathioprine to manage their lupus. Some members have reported weight changes as a potential side effect, but experiences vary from person to person. It's important to work closely with your healthcare provider to monitor any side effects. They can evaluate your specific situation and help manage any side effects that may occur. They may also recommend working with a nutritionist if needed to maintain a healthy weight while on the medication.

Remember that your doctor prescribed this medication because they believe the benefits outweigh the potential risks for your specific situation. If you have specific concerns, don't hesitate to discuss them with your healthcare provider.
