What is Plaquenil used for?

Plaquenil or hydroxychloroquine is a prescription medicine for treating malaria. It is categorized in a group of drugs called quinolines. Malaria is a serious disease that occurs when a person gets bitten by a mosquito that is carrying germs. There are different strains of malaria and some of them cannot be controlled with Plaquenil. As it is an antirheumatic medicine, Plaquenil is also prescribed for the treatment of lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. It is imperative to take the whole dose even if your malaria symptoms improve before the date you are supposed to discontinue use.

How is Plaquenil dosage taken?

It is imperative to take Plaquenil just as your doctor prescribes it. Hence, don’t take a smaller or a larger dose than your doctor recommends. Moreover, take this medicine for the suggested duration only. If you are asked to take once a week, then do exactly that; take Plaquenil the same day every week. It has to be taken either with a meal or a full glass of milk. If prescribed for preventing malaria, take Plaquenil two weeks prior to moving in to a malaria-prone zone. This would be for a region like Africa, Southern Asia or South America.

Then, keep on taking it during your visit and at least eight weeks after leaving the area. In case you already have malaria, take Plaquenil for three straight days, beginning with a single large dose and a smaller one in the last two days. Besides taking this medicine to prevent or cure malaria, you should take other measures to protect yourself from getting sick again. For instance, use an insect repellant that can keep mosquitoes away and sleep under a treated mosquito net. Should you suspect symptoms of malaria, such as fever and joint pains, call a health expert immediately.

When Plaquenil is prescribed for lupus or arthritis, it is taken daily for a long period of time. However, if you notice that you are not getting better after six months of consistent dosing, talk to your doctor. A hydroxychloroquine overdose can be fatal in kids, mostly, and should be treated as soon as possible.

What are the side effects of Hydroxychloroquine?

Plaquenil can cause some undesirable effects that you should be aware of. While the most severe symptoms are less common, it does not mean that they cannot happen. So, call your doctor if you experience breathing difficulty, swelling of the face or skin rashes. On the other hand, you may notice some mild side effects when taking Plaquenil. These are common and not a cause for alarm. They include the following:

• Weight loss and loss of appetite
• Feeling irritable and/or nervous
• Hair loss
• Skin itchiness or hives
• Stomach pain, nausea and/or vomiting
• Headache
• Tinnitus(ringing in ears)
• Dizziness

What are the precautions of taking Plaquenil?

• Speak to your doctor about your hydroxychloroquine allergy
