%0 Journal Article %T Drug-induced lupus in anti-TNF-alpha therapy and its treatment with rituximab %D 2012 %@ 0172-8172 %U http://hdl.handle.net/10906/78519 %X We report three patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who were treated with anti-TNF-α agents and who developed drug-induced lupus (DIL). Two of them received etanercept and the remainder adalimumab. We also present the favorable response observed with the withdrawal of the anti-TNF-alpha agents and the introduction of rituximab. Through this intervention, we observed a very good control of the activity of both DIL and RA without additional adverse reactions. %K Artritis reumatoide %K Lupus %K Rituximab %K Medicina %K Ciencias socio biomédicas %K Biomedical sciences %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
