/BOXED WARNING/ WARNING: Qualaquin use for the treatment or prevention of nocturnal leg cramps may result in serious and life-threatening hematologic reactions, including thrombocytopenia and hemolytic uremic syndrome/thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (HUS/TTP). Chronic renal impairment associated with the development of TTP has been reported. The risk associated with Qualaquin use in the absence of evidence of its effectiveness in the treatment or prevention of nocturnal leg cramps outweighs any potential benefit.
NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Qualaquin (Quinine Sulfate) Capsule (Revised: April 2013). Available from, as of November 20, 2014: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=1f66fba7-4026-4504-918d-4c88f2835cc0
Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylactic shock, anaphylactoid reactions, urticaria, serious skin rashes (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis), angioedema, facial edema, bronchospasm, and pruritus, have been reported with quinine. In addition, thrombocytopenia, hemolytic uremic syndrome/thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (HUS/TTP), immune thrombocytopenic purpura, blackwater fever, disseminated intravascular coagulation, leukopenia, neutropenia, granulomatous hepatitis, and acute interstitial nephritis have been reported and may also be due to hypersensitivity reactions to the drug.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
Potentially fatal cardiac arrhythmias, including torsades de pointes and ventricular fibrillation, have been reported rarely during quinine therapy. At least 1 case of fatal ventricular arrhythmia has been reported in a geriatric patient with preexisting prolonged QT interval treated with IV quinine sulfate for Plasmodium falciparum malaria.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
Serious, life-threatening, and sometimes fatal hematologic reactions, including thrombocytopenia and thrombocytopenia, hemolytic uremic syndrome/thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (HUS/TTP), have been reported in patients receiving quinine, especially patients using the drug for unlabeled indications (prevention or treatment of leg cramps or restless leg syndrome). Subsequent development of chronic renal impairment has occurred in patients with quinine-associated TTP.

The average fatal dose for an adult is about 8 g although deaths have been reported from as little as 1.5 g in an adult and 900 mg in a child.
IPCS; UK Poison Information Documents (UKPID) for Quinine (Last updated March 1996). Available from, as of November 20, 2014: https://www.inchem.org/pages/ukpids.html
A lethal dose of quinine has not been clearly defined, but fatalities have been reported after the ingestion of 2 to 8 grams in adults.
NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Qualaquin (Quinine Sulfate) Capsule (Revised: April 2013). Available from, as of November 20, 2014: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=1f66fba7-4026-4504-918d-4c88f2835cc0
Following oral administration of a single 600-mg dose of quinine sulfate in healthy adults, the mean plasma clearance was 0.08-0.47 L/hour per kg (median: 0.17 L/hour per kg) and the mean plasma elimination half-life was 9.7-12.5 hours. Following oral administration of 10 mg/kg of quinine sulfate in patients with uncomplicated malaria, mean total clearance of quinine was decreased (approximately 0.09 L/hour per kg) during the acute phase of the infection and increased (approximately 0.16 L/hour per kg) during the recovery or convalescent phase.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
Following oral administration of a single 600-mg dose of quinine sulfate in geriatric and younger adults, the mean clearance of the drug was decreased (0.06 versus 0.08 L/hour per kg) and the mean elimination half-life was significantly increased (18.4 versus 10.5 hours) in geriatric adults compared with younger adults. Although renal clearance of quinine was similar in geriatric and younger adults, geriatric adults excreted a larger proportion of the dose in urine as unchanged drug compared with younger adults (16.6 versus 11.2%). The steady-state pharmacokinetics after a quinine sulfate dosage of 648 mg 3 times daily for 7 days were similar in healthy geriatric adults 65-78 years of age and healthy younger adults 20-39 years of age; however, the mean elimination half-life was 24 hours in the geriatric individuals compared with 20 hours in the younger adults.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
Following oral administration of a single dose of 10 mg/kg of quinine sulfate in healthy children or pediatric patients 1.5-12 years of age with uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria, the mean total clearance (0.06 versus 0.3 L/hour per kg) is reduced and the plasma elimination half-life increased (12.1 versus 3.21 hours) in pediatric patients with malaria as compared to that observed in healthy children.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
In 15 patients with uncomplicated malaria who received a 10 mg/kg oral dose of quinine sulfate, the mean total clearance of quinine was slower (approximately 0.09 L/hr/kg) during the acute phase of the infection, and faster (approximately 0.16 L/hr/kg) during the recovery or convalescent phase.

In vitro studies using human liver microsomes and recombinant P450 enzymes have shown that quinine is metabolized mainly by CYP3A4. Depending on the in vitro experimental conditions, other enzymes, including CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP2E1 were shown to have some role in the metabolism of quinine.
NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Qualaquin (Quinine Sulfate) Capsule (Revised: April 2013). Available from, as of November 20, 2014: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=1f66fba7-4026-4504-918d-4c88f2835cc0
Quinine is metabolized almost exclusively via hepatic oxidative cytochrome P450 (CYP) pathways, resulting in four primary metabolites, 3-hydroxyquinine, 2'-quinone, O-desmethylquinine, and 10,11-dihydroxydihydroquinine. Six secondary metabolites result from further biotransformation of the primary metabolites. The major metabolite, 3-hydroxyquinine, is less active than the parent drug.

Compared with administration of quinine alone, administration of a single 600-mg dose of quinine sulfate in healthy individuals who were receiving ritonavir (200 mg every 12 hours) resulted in an increased quinine mean elimination half-life (11.2 hours versus 13.4 hours).
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
The plasma elimination half-life of quinine reportedly averages 8-21 hours in adults with malaria and 7-12 hours in healthy or convalescing adults.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
The steady-state pharmacokinetics after a quinine sulfate dosage of 648 mg 3 times daily for 7 days were similar in healthy geriatric adults 65-78 years of age and healthy younger adults 20-39 years of age; however, the mean elimination half-life was 24 hours in the geriatric individuals compared with 20 hours in the younger adults.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
In children 1-12 years of age, the plasma elimination half-life of quinine reportedly averages 11-12 hours in those with malaria and 6 hours in those convalescing from the disease.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2014; Drug Information 2014. Bethesda, MD. 2014
At toxic levels elimination half life is reported to be 26.5 + or - 5.8 hrs.
IPCS; UK Poison Information Documents (UKPID) for Quinine (Last updated March 1996). Available from, as of November 20, 2014: https://www.inchem.org/pages/ukpids.html
Quinine has a local anesthetic action and analgesic, antipyretic, and oxytocic effects. Quinine also has cardiovascular effects similar to those of quinidine.
