Historical Perspective

Hydralazine was the first agent to be associated with the development of lupus-like symptoms in 1954. Since then, more than 100 drugs have been identified as the cause of drug-induced lupus, with the list expanding with the development of newer biologic agents each year. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK441889/
