You're easiest course of action would be to ask a Dutch pharmacist. If the  listed drugs are not, you could ask if there are compounding pharmacies that could provide an equivalent, for example a formulation of pilocarpine eye drops for oral use.

It would be best to ask under generic names, because trade names differ country to country.

Restasis is Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion 0.05%

Plaquenil is Hydroxychloroquine

Salagen is pilocarpine
