Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine): Even though you dont have a rash Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine) can be responsible for your itchy hands and feet. Consult your doctor for help.

See details: Was the itching present before the Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine) was started? If not, consider the possibility of an allergic reaction to Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine) and speak with your doctor.
