Shifting from Prednisone to Hydroxychloroquine

I’ve been taking hydroxychloroquine for 17 years and never had any reactions. I’m wondering if the dose is too strong. I also have PMR and the hydroxy did nothing for that pain. I’m on prednisone in addition to hydroxy.

My rheumy put me on Hydroxychloroquine with the Prednisone straight away and I've been taking it for three years now. I think it somehow helps with the Prednisone . However, I'm now down to 1 mg. Prednisone and hope to be off it by mid August.
