A poor therapeutic observance is described between 3 and 76% cases in systemic lupus. It is associated with an increased risk of relapses, hospitalizations, morbidity and poor renal prognosis.
New treatment protocols exist and are indicated in second intention in case of good compliance. An assessment of therapeutic adherence is therefore essential.
Patients with systemic lupus diagnosed for at least 6 months, or skin lupus, who have been prescribed with Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine), will be included in the study.
The study primary objective is to determine risk factors for non-observance
The secondary objectives are to:

| Hydroxychloroquine dosage | Biological | Blood sample from a 6 ml tube, performed in the common practice. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The primary outcome measure is based on a blood dosage of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) | The HCQ dosage is assayed on whole blood (6ml) by high-pressure liquid chromatography performance, reproducible and inexpensive method. Only one laboratory centralizes the sampling. A dosage below 200 ng/ml or 0.2 mg/l defines a non-observing patient within the 40 days above. | Reflects the Plaquenil intake during the 40 previous days |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Patients considered as observing and non-observing will be compared according to the activity of the disease | Activity of the disease : Systemic lupus considered as active for a SELENA-SLEDAI score ≥ 6 | 40 days |
| Patients considered as observing and non-observing will be compared according to number of prescribed medication |
