Inflammation comes and goes as I see it myself. But need to take medication everyday not to miss it. I notice myself when I Miss taking my pills I have pain and inflammation builds up. Other times when I have pain on my knees when they’re swollen I rub Vicks on it where I have pain.

Hey Sweetheart! I've been on Plaquenil about 4yrs. I also take Leufludimide with it. I've had no side effects at all. It works wonders for me to control any more damage and maintains my pain level to a functional level. Of course it's not going to take all pain away for it's essential function is to help delay further damage to joints. For me, both drugs are working well.
Have a lovely evening
Love, hugs and kisses
