Usage

General Description

Quinine sulfate salt monohydrate is a chemical compound commonly used as an antimalarial medication. It is a salt form of quinine, a natural alkaloid found in the bark of the cinchona tree. Quinine sulfate is a bitter-tasting crystalline substance that is soluble in water and alcohol. It works by disrupting the growth and reproduction of the malaria parasite in the red blood cells, ultimately killing the parasite and treating malaria infections. Quinine sulfate salt monohydrate is also used to treat other conditions such as nocturnal leg cramps and is sometimes added to tonic water to give it a bitter taste. It is important to use this medication under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as it can have potential side effects and interactions with other drugs.
