I am taking it daily for osteoarthritis for about 2 years.
I have had gastric problems but it was related to my chemotherapy.
Thia week I have had a considerable bleed in my right eye and I wonder if it is relaated?

@maghera I was prescribed hydroxychloriquine when I first got Long COVID. They thought I had RA. I do not. Anyway, I looked at the side effects and although it is an older medication and does work well for some, others have bad eye issues, even blindness. This is not to scare you, but it is something that the medication lists as severe side effects. That is why I chose not to take it. I am sorry you are having these issues.
