Hi Everyone!
At the beginning of February I was put on Hydroxychloroquine for inflammatory arthritis. I'd be really interested to know how long it took other people for the drug to kick in and make a difference!
Thanks in advance!

It depends within 6 weeks t 400mg I saw an improvement and I had only been taking methotrexate for 2 weeks at that time but everyone is different

All DMARDS can take up to 12 weeks to work. I hope yours does soon.
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
