Kokstad, ZA

Has anyone been on Aralen. As I understand it's also a Malaria drug.

@Arelen.
I'm on plaquenil. Some are announcing this drug is being tested for the virus and some are saying it's fake news. Don't know who to believe. Here's to hoping. Hope you have a good day. Hugs

Plaquenil will make one more sun sensitive. My Dr insist that I see an eye dr and a dermatologist once a year for check ups. Be sure and wear sunglasses when outside during daylight. I also have a chart (amsler grid) to test my vision daily. I taped inside my medicine cabinet so I remember to use it. If you don't have vision insurance, your medical insurance will cover your eye exam. Make sure to explain this to them. Please be sun safe. Also, I hope my RA community is staying safe in these scary and uncertain times
