Tetracycline and niacinamide (TCN) were administered to 12 dogs with discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE), 3 dogs with perianal/perivulvar lupus erythematosus (PPLE), 1 dog with vesicular cutaneous lupus erythematosus (VCLE), and 1 dog with exfoliative cutaneous lupus erythematosus (ECLE). Eight of 12 dogs (67%) with DLE and 3 of 3 dogs (100%) with PPLE were satisfactorily controlled. The dog with ECLE had a partial response, and the dog with VCLE did not respond.

A 9-year-old, female miniature Dachshund presented with scale and alopecia on the muzzle except for the nose, external canthi, footpads and dorsal trunk, hypopigmentation and edema on the eyelids and vulva.Histopathologic examination showed hyperkeratosis, liquefaction degeneration, and mild to moderate infiltration of lymphocytes at the superficial dermis. Complete blood counts, serum chemistry analysis, serum thyroxin level and antinuclear antibody test did not show any abnormalities. Based on these findings, the dog was diagnosed as having non-classic, cutaneous lupus erythematosus. As steroid pulse therapy, oral triamcinolone was introduced, and then oral methylprednisolone was administered. In addition, oral azathioprine was used concurrently. These medications were effective, and discontinued after remission. Skin lesions reappeared when the owners left home in for a long time. These lesions subsided with previous treatment, and behavior modification was used for continuous remission instead of any medications.
