[QUOTE="Dark Horse, post: 1631755, member: 52527"] It's possible that a drug could cause increase the likelihood of an auto-immune disease occurring. For example this paper says, ' Interferon therapy can trigger induction of several autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes':- [URL]http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/34/9/2084[/URL] It's very difficult to tell whether a recorded 'side-effect' is due to a drug or would have happened anyway. To try and overcome this problem, in the UK there is a 'Yellow Card Scheme' where any potential side-effects that occur when someone is taking a drug should be recorded either by the doctor or the patient:- [URL]http://yellowcard.mhra.gov.uk/[/URL] . Using this system, the incidence of a particular 'side-effect' occurring when a particular drug is taken is compared to the incidence occurring when the drug is not taken. The occurrence of diabetes whilst taking a drug may just be due to coincidence but if the incidence of diabetes was much greater in people taking a particular drug than in those not taking the drug, diabetes could be identified as a known side-effect of that drug. There are a couple of interesting articles on drug-induced diabetes here:- [URL]https://www.diapedia.org/other-types-of-diabetes-mellitus/41040851133/drug-induced-diabetes[/URL] [URL]https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Vincent_Launay-Vacher/publication/7510637_Drug-induced_diabetes_mellitus/links/5555d37408ae980ca60b1c2f/Drug-induced-diabetes-mellitus.pdf[/URL] [/QUOTE]
