Product Details
- Name: Liquid Quinine.
- How It Works: Quinine is an antimalarial alkaloid that interferes with the malaria parasite’s ability to break down hemoglobin within red blood cells. This causes a buildup of toxic substances within the parasite, leading to its death and the clearing of the infection from the bloodstream.
- Form: Oral Suspension / Syrup.
- Warning:
- Prescription Only: This is a prescription medication and should only be used under medical supervision for a confirmed malaria diagnosis.
- Serious Side Effects: Can cause serious and life-threatening side effects, including severe bleeding problems, heart issues (irregular heartbeat), and severe allergic reactions.
- Cinchonism: Common side effects (cinchonism) include ringing in the ears (tinnitus), hearing impairment, headache, nausea, and visual disturbances; report any of these to your doctor.
- Do Not Use For Leg Cramps: It must not be used to treat or prevent nighttime leg cramps due to the risk of serious side effects.
- Administration: Take with food to lessen stomach upset. Shake the bottle well before each use. Complete the full course of treatment as prescribed.
