Yep, I have Lupus and APS and I am on Plaquenil. I have been on it for about 2 months and I am feeling much better. I hope it works for you too.
I am noticing that my hair is thinning a little more but that will get better with time. To reduce some of the side effects break up the dose. It will be less hard on your tummy that way.
Below is some more information.

well... personally i have not been on this drug but the doctor had recommended this for me also... but he told me of the chances of it effecting my kidneys and or eye sight. I'd rather take my chances just dealing with the symptoms that I had rather the chances of the medication really screwing something up that's working perfectly fine. I guess it would be how bad is the lupus effecting you??
But I also can testify to this God is magnificent I have been healed after known having lupus for last 11 yrs it wasn't till 4 years ago they finally diagnosed it and just found out a couple months ago I'm clear and free!
