Hi ,
I understand your concern. Many treatment options include some "frightening" warnings. There are numerous members of this community that have/are taking Benlysta. I'm hoping some will chime in here with their personal experiences.
In the meantime, I'm including a few articles that may provide some helpful information: https://lupus.net/treatment/belimumab and https://lupus.net/living/tips-benlysta-infusions
Your son is fortunate to have you looking out for him. (As most of us know, a Momma's job is endless)
I certainly hope you both can find all the info/answers you need.
Always know this community is here to help.
Kindly, Doreen (Team Member)
