If you decide to try Plaquenil, check out the list of drugs to avoid that are listed here:

Common Side Effects of Plaquenil (Hydroxychloroquine) Drug Center - RxList

It is interesting to note, that the brand name has been discontinued this year, and only generic is available now.

Drug companies often discontinue their brand name, or sell it when sales are low, and/or they have too many liability suits for damages to settle. When a drug causes damages to people, the liability falls to the patent holder and it is common for the patent holder to discontinue that drug when it can no longer make $$ from it.

Plaquenil has many serious side effects, which are listed on that page as well. So be very careful and monitor yourself for any of these side effects.
