What is Hydroxychloroquine?

Hydroxychloroquine is a generic prescription drug used to treat or prevent malaria. Hydroxychloroquine is also prescribed to treat rheumatoid arthritis based on disease activity level or as part of combination therapy as a later-line regimen if other treatments have not been successful, and in lupus as a standard of care for all patients, regardless of organ involvement or disease severity.

Malaria is a blood infection caused by a single-celled parasite called Plasmodium, which feeds on and destroys red blood cells. In its advanced stages, a malarial infection results in a severe and life-threatening depletion of red blood cells. Hydroxychloroquine stops the growth of the malaria parasites by raising the pH levels in a part of the parasite's cell.

Hydroxychloroquine works in much the same way in relieving rheumatism and lupus, conditions in which the immune system attacks healthy tissue. Again, Hydroxychloroquine raises pH levels in some cells and disrupts downstream effects that would otherwise contribute to inflammatory signaling. 

What are the side effects of Hydroxychloroquine?

The most common side effects of Hydroxychloroquine include, but are not limited to, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea, dizziness, vertigo, headache, loss of appetite, involuntary movements, bleeding, seizures, hair loss, low blood sugar, and low blood cell counts. Retinal toxicity, which is an irreversible effect related to cumulative dosage and treatment duration, is a serious potential side effect. Therefore, patients on long-term therapy with Hydroxychloroquine are recommended to receive periodic retinal exams. Allergic reactions to Hydroxychloroquine are uncommon and may manifest as rash, redness, or dermatitis. Mental and mood changes are possible and include nervousness, confusion, unusual thoughts, unusual behaviors, and irritability.

Ways to save on Hydroxychloroquine

There are several ways to save on Hydroxychloroquine. Signing up for SingleCare’s membership program and exploring the website is a great way to explore your options by looking at different pharmacies' prices. Medicare Part D Extra Help is a federal program available to individuals with limited income and resources to help reduce copay costs. Using HSA/FSA accounts to pay for prescriptions is another option that uses pre-tax dollars, reducing total taxable income. Since Hydroxychloroquine is available as a generic formulation, it is unlikely that patient assistance programs or manufacturer rebates are available. 

Is there a cheaper alternative to Hydroxychloroquine?

For rheumatoid arthritis, Hydroxychloroquine is a preferred therapeutic option at certain disease severity levels due to improved tolerability and a more favorable risk profile, but alternative options may be considered if the cost of Hydroxychloroquine is prohibitive. Some generic alternatives that may be suitable are sulfasalazine, methotrexate, and leflunomide. In the management of lupus, Hydroxychloroquine is a foundational component of most regimens, as it has demonstrated the prevention of flare-ups, organ damage, and blood clot formation; it also increases overall survival. However, if not tolerated or cost-prohibitive, methotrexate, azathioprine, and mycophenolate mofetil are alternatives.
