Experiences with

Quinoric

I’ve mostly been given the brand Quinoric which is increasingly upsetting my tummy. I already have gastrointestinal issues from endometriosis and the Lupus meds aggravate it. I understand it’s a common issue with Quinoric. Has anyone got on better with other brands of hydroxychloriquine ?

Has it same make up as Quinoric or bristol laborotories? If you have did you tolerate it ok please. As yet again cannot get Zentiva!! I find it so frustrating, that I am now in tears over it, any info very gratefully received x

Recently however, I was told there was a shortage of the drug and I have since been put on a Bristol Laboratories brand that I think is quinoric? Omg, it is awful. I feel mildly nauseous which is to be expected but I am so sore in my joints and I feel EXHAUSTED. I have a consistent fever too.

As far as we're aware there are no supply issues with the Bristol / Quinoric version. Please get in touch if I can be of any help or answer any questions. Take care Debbie

Quinoric makes me sick and blackrock was not an option either to order in. It took an hour phoning round yesterday and that was the last local chemist in town I tried that had it. I've tried an online pharmacy but it kept coming back unable to supply zentiva.

I have been taking Zentiva brand of Hydroxychorquine since Plaquinel was no longer available, having initially been given Quinoric and been really unwell on it.

I saw a thread that some people are able to tolerate other brands and not Quinoric, so wonder if that is the case for me. Unfortunately, the next month the pharmacist went back to Quinoric and the vomiting, etc. started again.

I can't take Quinoric and have just been given the ipca hydroxy which is the same as Quinoric. Has anyone been able to get Zentiva? Many thanks

This month they sent Quinoric (Bristol Labs) which I find difficult to tolerate. I just phoned Zentiva Customer Service (0844 8793188) who were very polite but do not deal with the general public.

Anyway the upshot is the Hydroxy Sulphate from ipac are exactly the same as Quinoric. I hope this is helpful to those who can't take Quinoric

I am being given Quinoric and something tells me that’s not the one I wanted. Feeling so confused. Help. Sorry for long message. Thank you.

pharmacist supplying xentiva or Blackrock which I always request and they've just delivered my meds and this time they've given me IPCA labs, which I've not heard of and since the pharmacy is a nightmare to get hold of to organise a replacement, I wondered if anyone has tried it and if it's yucky like quinoric

I can only tolerate Quinoric but no more than 200mg/day on a full stomach otherwise any other brand causes severe stomach cramps, migraines and dizziness. I just wanted to know if there was anyone out there experiencing the same thing.

This month my Chemist has sent me Quinoric instead of my usual brand. Has anyone been given this ? My Chemist is very good at getting my drugs but couldn’t get any this month and apologised for sending the Quinoric . I would be grateful for any positives or negatives on Quinoric.

Pharmacy game me Quinoric. The first few days I didn’t feel great but side effects seemed to fade. This week I’ve been given the Zentiva brand I have never felt so rough! Chills, Gastric belly, nausea, swollen lips, burning cheeks, insomnia, ringing ears and chest tight.

But in the meantime I have start taking 200mg of Hydroxychloroquine brand name Quinoric and on the second day of taking them I experienced heart palpitations within minutes of taking it. Has anyone else experience anything the same and what did you do to rectify? Many thanks in advance for any tips

I guess my question is do you think the Quinoric will have done this or after 12 days of that tablet it should have left my system? I’ve had to increase my omeprazole to 20mg too.

The brand I was given is Quinoric. Because I have a mannose binding lectin deficiency, an immune deficiency, I have been warned that they would not be keen to put me on immunosuppressants as my immune system is compomised and I get repeated shingles. I take valacyclovir daily to counter this.

I've been taking 200mg twice a day Hydroxychloraquine (Quinoric) since March/April. I felt an improvement after about 6 weeks but the longer I've been on it, the worse I feel.
