Brief Answer:
Diarrhoea can be due to HCQ.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Ask a doctor forum.
I can understand your concern.
I have gone through the drug list you have mentioned.
HCQ is known to cause diarrhea.
None of them is penicillin group of drug.
So your diarrhoea is mostly due to HCQ.
Your other symptoms are more suggestive of allergy and vitamin B complex deficiency.
So better to start combination of anti histamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast).
Also take multivitamin tablets containing folic acid, vitamin b 12, riboflavin, pyridoxine, niacin etc.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
