This occurred for <0.6% of belimumab patients in both time periods reported. 2 Daily dose in prednisone equivalents = (strength * quantity)/ days of supply. Claims with <=0 value for fields used to calculate dose were dropped (resulted in dropping <1% of patients without a valid claim). 3For those with an invalid daily dose (>100 mg/day), doses were capped at 100 mg. This occurred for <2% of belimumab patients in both time periods reported. Birt JA, et al. Lupus Sci Med 2020; 7:e000435. doi: 10.1136/lupus-2020-000435.
