Petition Get Funding of Benylsta for Lupus Patients

More details

Benylsta is the first lupus-targeted treatment developed in 56 years. NICE do not want to fund it through the NHS due to cost. A patient's treatment options should not be defined by cost, but by the lives saved and improved. We want the Government to look into this issue and take action to have this drug funded. We have the right to be allowed medications developed to fight lupus.
