Hydroxychloroquine is used to treat Lupus by interfering with the communication between cells (not exactly clear in the research tbh). Lupus, Rheumatoid arthritis, and other uses for Hydroxychloroquine appear to be autoimmune responses where the body attacks connective tissue.
If Hydroxychloroquine reduces inflammation and reduces immune responses damaging connective tissue I could see it generally useful for incidents where the body damages itself (such as Alzheimer or dementia)
- everdrive 4y agoDo we think that mere inflammation-reduction alone is the explanation here?
- napier 4y agoThere'a nothing "mere" about HCQ's inflammation reduction.
- ffssffss 4y ago> incidents where the body damages itself I don't think this is right, isn't the etiology of Alzheimers still pretty much completely unknown?
