It was used commonly and as a bitter and flavoring agent, and is still useful for the treatment of babesiosis. Quinine is also useful in some muscular disorders, especially nocturnal leg cramps and myotonia congenita, because of its direct effects on muscle membrane and sodium channels. The mechanisms of its antimalarial effects are not well understood.,CSP: quinine ascorbate is listed by USP as a smoking deterrent.,PDQ: A quinidine alkaloid isolated from the bark of the cinchona tree.
