Hi there, Lorraine.....
Plaquenil did this to me too when I first took it, years ago - but soon settled down, just keep an eye on things yourself for a while and take time to get used to it.
After a few years off the things, I've restarted in the past week and I am experiencing the same awful dizzy, out-of-it symptoms..........very frightening. Make sure the experts are aware of it and be advised by them. Good luck, Lxx

Hi Lorraine

Sorry that you are having problems with HydroC. I have been taking this and like Joanne I take my tablets at night. Mind you now I think of it I have had the odd dizzy spell taht last for a matter of seconds. I was really nervous going on this as about the potential eye problem but was reassured by consultant as rare as hens teeth! I think its one of the mildest drugs eg doesnt effect the liver and doesnt need to be monitored.

Hope all settles down soon
