I have recently been diagnosed with lupus & I also have Chrones disease.  I dont think my MD knows very much about either.  The rheumatologist suggested he take me off all my medications, but he doesnt think he should.  I would like to discontinue some of them, but dont know which cant be stopped cold turkey & which need to be stopped slowly.  I am not taking very many RX drugs, but the ones I would like to stop specifically are Omeprazole & Triamterene HCTZ.  Should I decrease these slowly or can I just stop them.  The rheumatologist believes my Lupus is drug induced.  Thank you
