Summary

Dipyridamole, a medication extensively used in combination with aspirin for stroke prevention, is a promising new treatment for lupus. Dipyridamole has been shown to inhibit certain lymphocyte populations that are over-reactive in lupus and to delay the emergence of lupus-related pathology in mice with lupus. The investigators are interested in investigating the efficacy of dipyridamole in preventing flares in patients with lupus and its impact on biomarkers of disease activity.
