Interaction between plaquenil and cellcept???
Has anyone experienced bad symptoms from taking both
plaquenil
and cellcept? I recently stated taking
plaquenil
, along with my usual meds (warfarin, prednisone, synthroid) which I've been taking for 20 years. After 3 mos of
plaquenil
, I'mexperiencing more pains, fevers, GI problems, etc.

New here - going to start mtx tomorrow
I've been on triple therapy of gold,
plaquenil
and sulfasazine for past 14 years but rheumatologist thinks I need to change my meds to avoid any more damage as she feels disease is more active than she would like.

Rock bottom: any ideas?
Have tried many meds: methotrexate, sulfasalzine,
plaquenil
, humira, enbrel and orencia - with no real improvement. Just horrible side effects. I've also had two knee synovectomies and so many steroid injections that I've lost count.

Currently taking
Plaquenil
and methotrexate. Inflammation and pain continued so Dr added a course of Prednisone. I felt terrific but since completion of prednisone pain, stiffness and fatigue are returning. I'm currently on 7 tab of 2.5 mg per week. Is there hope?

Rheumy Changes
I am taking
Plaquenil
200 every 12 hours. Thankfully I'm doing great. I see him every 12 weeks, he squeezes my joints, and says "great, see you in 12 weeks". The few times I've told him about new problems he just dismisses them and tells me to talk to my family Dr.

Hi Everyone - I'm new here and was diagnosed with RA in January. I also have Chronic Kidney Disease.
So I am on
Plaquenil
and can only use Tylenol for pain relief. The pain is worse at night and it severely impacts my sleep. Anyone else have this scenario? Any suggestions? Thank you!

Nonstop pain
I am on
plaquenil
and it seems to have only helped my fatigue and keeps me up at night plus the pain doesn't help. I've been sleeping on my back forever and now that's hurting as well. Two nights ago I was awake all night. Money is running out and I am stressing. Help

I'm on methotrexate once a week and
Plaquenil
daily. Since starting
Plaquenil
about 2 months ago I haven't had any big flare ups so far although I do get a fair bit of pain in my knees especially when I'm trying to sleep.

Sometimes it's just so frustrating - at the mercy of my body
Dr said that because my immune system is depressed by
plaquenil
and compromised by my Autoimmune disease (UCTD) I am more susceptible to developing complications like this 😢. I just want to be normal and do my job and be able to look after my little girl!

Methotrexate - hints and tips please
Also, I'm currently on hydroxychloroquine sulphate (
plaquenil
), forgot to ask rheumatologist.. is it usual to continue with this alongside the methotrexate? I work a mon-fri full time week in a physical job which might influence which day I should take mess? Thanks

Hi, I'm new here...
And we'll see what my opthamologist says about my eyes and
Plaquenil
. I also don't see how I'm going to manage the gastro-intestinal side effects with a 1.5 hour commute to work in each direction. The Achilles tendonitis has abated, thank goodness.

2nd degree burn with Lupus & Sjogren's
I'm on
Plaquenil
, Methotrexate, and prednisone. It's been 5 days and it's not getting any better. I know healing will take longer, but I don't know what to expect. I've been following all the advice about wound treatment, but I'm worried about infection and how everything else will come into play.

New Medication Options- please help!
I have RA and have been on MTX and
plaquenil
for 6months- time for a change says my rheumatologist. He's offering Simponi Aria infusion or Humira pens. (I went from mild to moderate RA in 6 months.)

RA and eyes
I stopped the
plaquenil
until I see the eye dr. Can this be from the medication? Or another RA symptom??
