Dapsone for Linear IgA Disease User Reviews

"I have been taking dapsone since December 2007 for (rare) Linear IgA disease. I was increased to 100 mg 1Xday. Severe anemia set in. Hospitalized and given 2 blood transfusions. Its true that some people have a bad reaction and can develop anemia. Taken off medicine and skin blisters returned. Anemia went away! Am currently on 25 mg 1X day. Less effective, but helps some. I think DAPSONE is probably very effective to clear skin-- but can wreck hemoglobin, etc."

"After 2nd Pfizer shot I was in hospital with very low blood pressure. 2 day afterwards starting to have rashes on elbows, knees , butt, and head. 1 month later have everywhere. Dr gave me 100mg of dapsone and clear up in 3 weeks. Every time Dr reduce to 50mg I started breaking out again. Still on 100mg for after 1 year of taking. Dr say I will most likely have to take rest of my life"
