Minocycline related lupus.
The determination of a factor triggering lupus-like symptoms could yield new insights into the management of rheumatic disease. We describe a case of minocycline related lupus in a young patient positive for HLA-DR2 who was prescribed minocycline 4 times for mild acne and developed rheumatic symptoms each time. We review 8 other cases.
