I have been diagnosed with polymyalgia rheumatica. Why is HCQS 200 mg prescribed for me along with Defcort 6 mg. ## HCQS stands for the medication Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate, it has proven effective at reducing inflammation for arthritic conditions. Some of the most common side effects may include: nausea, diarrhea, headache and reduced appetite. ## Defcort contains Prednisolone, this is a steroid, which is also used to help reduce the inflammation. Both of these medications are intended to slow the inflammation and worsening of your condition. Some of the most common side effects for this can also include: nausea, drowsiness, edema and weight gain. ## hcqs and prednisolone, ana and positive dna ## i am RA factor postive guy. my anti ccp level is so high that its 154 instead of <15....

My wife has Rhuemotoid arthitis since 4 years & since 2 yeras she is taking 4mg Zempred daily, HCQS 200mg & BGcal CTF. Now she started taking on alternate days as we got to know this steriod should not be used long. Niw whenever after taking this tablet, her heart beat increases & weakness & uneasy. After 30min she feel better & her pain stop. Hope this has no any dangerous impact on her. Her age is 30 yeras. Please advise how to stop taking Zempred 4 mg. ## Those are normal side effects of this medication, according to NIH reports. She may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, and insomnia. How long she can safely take it is up to a medical professional. What has her doctor advised?

white oval pill with ZC38 on one side ## The pill in description is Hydroxychloroquine sulfate (200 mg). To view information about this drug, please click on the link below... Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do. ## Is hydroxychloroquine a steroid? I was prescribed with hydroxychloroquine and i forgot to ask the dr if I can take painkillers as well when I'm in pain. ## It has been three months now that I have had this fever and an attack of arthralgia. I still have pain in my joints and muscles. I have been advised to take HCQS (Hydroxychloroquine) 200mg once a day. Is it ok to take this and for how long? Does it contain any steroids? What are the possible side effects?

I am a heart patient with low iron and have been advised to take Ferritin inj... Is it safe? ## Your iron being low is far more dangerous than undergoing to treatments to rectify the problem, according to the NIH. However, you should be made aware that some side effects may persist for the rest of your life, such as headaches and joint pain. What other medications do you take? Some of them may be contributing to the problem. ## I am presently on Cardace 2.5 mg + Cardivas 6.25 + HCQS 200 + Dytor 10 + Lipicure 20 + Ecosprin 75 along with meds for Diabetes. I also take a supplement called One a Day and Folic Acid.
