Plaquenil

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
New York, NY

I take plaquenil. 200mg 1 pill twice a day! I have stomach aches and now I notice my pelvic area and groin feels stiff and hurts. I know this is not normal. Has anyone else experience anything like this?

It's been a minute since I was on Plaquenil but don't remember having the pelvic pains. I did have the stomach issues and my hair came out! Talk to your doctor.

I take Plaquenil also, but I take 400 mg in the morning. I did have stomach issues at first, but I was told to always take it with yogurt in the morning. As far as my pelvic area and groin being stiff and hurting I have not had that. You may want to check with your doctor. Hugs.

Every time I go on Plaquinel I get burned while driving in a car. I'm off it again. Even taking sun block doesn't seem to help. I'm not on anything for RA as I'm highly allergic to all the meds that come down the pike!
