I have been diagnosed with the disorder and have occasional flare-ups....but so far haven't needed to make use of plaquinal, steroids, immunosuppresent, or even constant use of eye dropsetc..In fact I don't even need to use eye drops unless I have a flare-up..I may have just lucked out..or the "anti-inflammatory" protocol I typically follow may actually be limiting severity and frequency of symptoms and flare-ups.

Please continue to share this information with others and I'll keep you in my prayers.

Previous studies have shown that rebamipide exhibits anti-inflammatory properties and can also stimulate saliva production in an animal (rat) model of Sjogren's
