Sponsor's own description

Hydroxychloroquine(HCQ)play major role in management of many rheumatic diseases. Retinal toxicity from HCQ is serious side effect because even after the drug drug is discontinued, there is little if any visual recovery. For this reason, regular screening for retinal toxicity is recommended to detect early retinopathy and discontinue the therapy. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes play major roles in drug metabolism. Certain single-nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) in CYP genes may have a large impact on CYP enzyme activity.Polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450 gene might influence blood concentration some patients have a genetic predisposition to HCQ toxicity (e.g.,from abnormalities in the ABCA4 gene)Which is not studied previously among Egyptian population
