Arthritis Ireland has launched a new awareness campaign, ‘Living with lupus’, which aims to shed light on the various aspects of managing lupus, including treatment options, the importance of planning for pregnancy, medication adherence, and the future outlook for those living with this chronic condition.

Campaign materials include an extensive interview recording with Dr Laura Durcan, consultant rheumatologist at Beaumont hospital, which covers a wide range of topics such as risk factors, pregnancy planning, treatment options, medication adherence, fatigue, sleep, and the future for lupus patients. A new information booklet has also been launched that is designed to provide a thorough resource for individuals living with lupus, offering a complete guide to managing their condition. Further information is available via the Arthritis Ireland helpline on 0818 252 846 or at arthritisireland.ie.
