Good evening. The treatment for DUE is a bit tough as not many medications work for it. Plaquenil is the Chat Doctor.  If you only have butterfly rash and no rashes elsewhere, you can take a course of oral steroids along with topical creams like tacrolismus(after prescription from your rheumatologist). I won't recommend topical steroids for the face as it can cause skin atrophy on that site. Also, the dose of MTX is quite low. It starts being effective from 15 mg. It can help in the skin problems due to SHE. Avoid going in the sun and if you have to use a good sunscreen with Protective Factor of at least 50. Only having rash is not too serious, so you don't need very strong medications for it. Hope the information was useful.
