You have to be responsible about the dosage with Plaquenil. I have a friend whose relative went blind because she had lost weight and her dosage didn’t take that into account.

Very true, niece is on it for Lupus, it’s OFF label.

Plaquenil

I’m on my third Type 2 Diabetic med, first 2 where horrible. Januvia one of the newer ones broke me out in Bad Hives, which meant a round of Predisone. Predisone runs your Sugar up. It also is NOT to be given to Glaucoma patients, it can cause blindness, that goes for all steroids, cortisone, and Anti Inflammatories like Mobic, Toradol and the OTC non Tylenol meds.

And most doctors are ignorant of those facts. 1 ten mg Predisone will raise eye pressure from 12 to 23+ over night.

What the unidentified couple took was not Plaquenil.
