Sjögren’s Syndrome occurs when the immune system attacks moisture-producing glands, particularly in the eyes and mouth. It may exist on its own (primary) or alongside other autoimmune diseases like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis (secondary).
It affects over 4 million Americans, with women over 40 most at risk.
Most people with Sjögren’s live a normal lifespan, especially when the condition is well-managed. However, factors that can increase health risks include:
