Speak to the doctor about the Plaquenil (after approved from the ophthalmologist) and starting it slowly. The typical dose is 400mg (total for the day). Some start with 50-100mg BID and work their way up. I too have numerous drug reactions, but am able to tolerate the Plaquenil.

I will do that. I always prefer to start new meds slowly so I'm pretty sure they won't object to it. Thanks for the excellent advice.
