Living with lupus presents its own set of challenges, but it shouldn’t hinder your ability to explore the world and indulge in your wanderlust. Although it may look different than pre-lupus days, travel is still something those with lupus can enjoy. All it takes is a little planning.
Managing Lupus Medications
One of the primary concerns when traveling with lupus is figuring out how to manage your meds. It’s crucial to establish a consistent medication routine before embarking on your journey, if you aren’t great at taking your meds at home, you certainly won’t be while away!
Avoid scheduling travel shortly after starting new lupus medications, as it may take time to adjust your dose and determine if it’s working. Always make sure you have an ample supply of medications for the duration of your trip, including emergency packs such as prednisone.
