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)
