Prednisone is one of the most common treatments, but has horrible long term effects. Currently I'm on Methotrexate weekly at 25MG, also 1,200ML of IVIG followed by 600ML of Remicade.

The most used treatment seems to be Steroids which are sometimes given with Methotrexate. Other immune supressants are used in severe cases like Remecade.

Love them it hate them Steroids are the first line of action and they help reduce the inflammation quickly before to much damage is caused.
For me the best steroid saving drug has been mycophenolate but everybody reacts differently to drugs

Prednisolone on a high dose first and gradually lower the dose accordingly. This helped me and indent into remission for 2-3 years but it came back and this time I got fibrosis. Now I am on Azathioprine and feel ok.

I have been on a Prednisone taper for 5 months and now I am back on 20 mg daily. It has decreased the size of my lymph nodes.

Self-care. Eat well, drink plenty of water, get the sleep your body needs, and move when you can. Enjoy some fresh air every day if possible.
Some doctors prescribe steroids. Often arthritis medications are ordered to help with the pain of sarcoidosis, other people take antidepressants to help with the stress or struggles of living with Sarcoidosis. Inhalers are often prescribed for sarcoidosis of the lungs.

The first line treatment for Sarcoidosis is corticosteroids, usually prednisone. If the patient has very little evidence of Sarcoidosis and a healthy immune system, many Drs will take a wait and see approach, since Sarcoidosis resolves itself all on its own in the majority of cases.
If Prednisone is ineffective, or the patient is unable to tolerate the side effects and complications of Prednisone, there are several other medications that might be tried. The most likely is Methotrexate, along with a supplement of Folic Acid.

Short term boost of prednisone

Since this disease is not well known the treatment is just steroids basically in different forms. Hopefully they will come up with something that will cure it.

Usually they start with prednisone to help with the Inflammatory issues. At this time there is no cure. I'm personally on cell cept and remicaid. And we are now looking at New experiment mental medications to help with this illness

Corticosteroids are the primary treatment for sarcoidosis. Other treatments are immunosuppressant medications, Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), Methotrexate. Depending on your symptoms or complications, other treatments may be recommended.

Translated from french Improve translation

Generally doctors prescribed corticoides and in case they give immunosuppressants. It all depends on the stage and attacks.
