There is info on this drug on the Versus Arthritis website at: https://www.versusarthritis.org/about-arthritis/treatments/drugs/hydroxychloroquine/

I've taken Hydroxy but am not on it now. I had no side effects to notice but it was one that needed time to get into your system, I was told I needed to take it for 12 weeks to see how it was working for me.

Good luck on your journey to find the right meds combination
