I am wondering if taking dapsone stops the DH breakout by destroying the
gluten protein in our bodies or if it delays the reaction until you stop
taking the dapsone??? Diagnosed 8 years ago via biopsy, I take dapsone as
needed, usually averaging 125 mg over the course of 7 days. I am
constantly borderline anemic, take extra iron to combat the low blood
count. This week, I have ran myself out of dapsone, DR. wont prescribe
till I have a visit on Wednesday, it is all about the CO-pay.... but
during this process of regulating my last few dapsone I am so broken out I
cannot believe it. I am back to pre diagnosis breakout - knees, elbows,
scalp, ears, ....... when i was still drinking real beer to releave the
itching.... I am very careful of my diet, am always very serious, but with
t
his recent huge breakout, I am wondering if the breakout is caused soley
from not taking the dapsone as opposed to ingesting anything. Do I have
gluten protein radicals running through my system looking for a way out,
waiting for me to take a lesser amount of dapsone???? I try to take the
least amount of dapsone that i can every week, happy when i am only take
75mg per week. I will summarize Dapsone and DH comments.
Thanks,
Kaye
