Quinoric is a potent disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) specifically engineered to manage chronic inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. It contains Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate, a medication that interferes with the communication between cells in the immune system. By stabilizing "lysosomal membranes" and inhibiting the processing of autoantigens, Quinoric effectively reduces systemic inflammation, prevents joint damage, and controls the "flares" associated with overactive immune responses.

Quinoric is a foundational clinical choice for long-term autoimmune stabilization:
Rheumatoid Arthritis: Reducing joint pain, stiffness, and swelling while preventing long-term structural damage.
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): Managing skin rashes, joint pain, and organ inflammation in Lupus patients.
Discoid Lupus: Treating localized skin lesions and sensitivity to sunlight.
Malaria: Both for the treatment of acute malaria attacks and for "prophylaxis" (prevention) in specific travel regions.
Photosensitivity Disorders: Managing certain skin conditions triggered or worsened by UV light.
Retinal Toxicity: Long-term use of Quinoric can affect the back of the eye (the retina). You MUST have a baseline eye exam before starting and regular annual check-ups. Seek medical care immediately if you notice blurred vision, light flashes, or difficulty reading. Hypoglycemia: Quinoric can lower blood sugar levels. If you are diabetic, monitor your glucose closely. Heart Rhythm: Use with caution if you have a history of "QT prolongation" or are taking other heart medications. Muscle Weakness: Contact your doctor if you experience unexplained muscle weakness, especially in the hips or shoulders. Pregnancy: While often continued in Lupus patients to prevent flares, it must only be used during pregnancy under strict specialist supervision.
For maximum efficacy, Quinoric must be taken consistently and always with food to protect the stomach lining.
Standard Dosage:
Autoimmune Conditions: Typically 200mg to 400mg daily (one or two tablets).
Malaria Prophylaxis: Usually taken once a week on the same day each week, starting 2 weeks before travel.
Application Tips:
Take With Food or Milk: This significantly reduces the risk of stomach upset and nausea.
Consistency: Take your dose at the same time every day to maintain a steady level in your bloodstream.
The "Cumulative" Effect: For arthritis or Lupus, it may take 4 to 12 weeks of daily use before you feel the full benefit. Do not stop taking it if you don't feel better immediately.
Avoid Antacids: Do not take antacids or "kaolin" within 4 hours of Quinoric, as they can block its absorption.
Common side effects include mild nausea, stomach cramps, diarrhea, or a loss of appetite. Some patients may notice a mild skin rash or "itching" (pruritus). Most of these symptoms improve as your body adjusts to the medication. If you experience mood changes, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), or unusual bruising, contact Sanlive Pharmacy or your specialist immediately.
Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C, protected from direct light and moisture. Keep the tablets in their original blister packaging until use. Keep out of reach of children.
Q: Is Quinoric the same as "Chloroquine"?
A: They are chemically related, but Hydroxychloroquine (Quinoric) is generally considered to be safer and better tolerated for long-term use than standard Chloroquine.
Q: Can I drink "Alcohol" while taking it?
A: Occasional moderate alcohol is usually okay, but both alcohol and Quinoric are processed by the liver. It is best to limit intake to avoid unnecessary liver strain.
Q: Will it "Cure" my Lupus or Arthritis?
A: There is currently no cure for these conditions. Quinoric is a "controller"—it keeps the disease in "remission" and prevents it from getting worse.
Q: What if I "Miss a Dose"?
A: Take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one. Do not take a double dose.
