I'd be interested in seeing anything on this relationship. Plaquenil is not an antibiotic, nor even in that class.

At least this is my understanding...but gosh knows I've been wrong before.

I've seen it linked to them chemically a few times.
I'd say...if you had the severe itching...that would be a sign of avoid it in the future.
This drug has always been problematic for many reasons.
