Does anyone in the group have any experience with taking this drug
(Plaquinil) for knee pain (arthritis)?

Thanks.

It did nothing for me, but neither did most other things. Enbrel finally
helped for 5 years, not so good now. Everyone is different so it might work
for you.
PD

Hi Muffin, As far as I know taking Plaquinil is for someone with
inflam.arth. Has your doctor told you what kind of arthritis you have?
