Overview

There is no established method for prevention of systemic lupus erythematosus.

Primary Prevention

There is no established method for prevention of systemic lupus erythematosus. However, preventing exposure to the risk factors listed below, especially flare up related risk factors, can help to decrease flare up episodes or even may be helpful in SLE prevention:

  • Preventing exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light
  • Cigarette smoking cessation[1]
  • Prevent working in crystalline silica work environment (e.g. cleaning powders, soil, pottery materials, cement etc.) [2]
  • Prevent caring a pet (especially pet dog)

Protection

Moderate alcohol drinking might be protective for SLE. [3]
