Quinine: Good or Bad?

When there is a disease that is affects various countries in various regions around the world, the news of help spreads fast. Consequently, when a drug comes along that will take care of this disease, this too becomes international news. This is what happened in the 1940's when quinine became the drug of choice for treating malaria.

Quinine is a naturally found substance with anti-inflammatory ingredients. It is bitter to the taste and white in color. There are other anti-malarial drugs that have been discovered since the discovery of quinine, but quinine is still used pretty regularly.

What used to be such a highly regarded drug substance has now fallen under some negative light. There are consumers that take quinine but do not have malaria. This is because they have so happily found another use for quinine. That is, quinine has been used to treat leg cramps, foot cramps, and other types of arthritis. One would surmise the many benefits of finding a drug that can be used to treat multiple illnesses leads to excitement. The excitement of this discovery, however, did not last too long. These same patients that have taken quinine for other reasons besides malaria are now experiencing very serious side effects. These side effects have a wide range from liver issues, heart issues and even death.

Since the discovery of these serious health issues, many quinine lawsuits have been filed. If you have taken quinine and have suffered any injury, it may be prudent for you to also file a quinine lawsuit. This will not be clear until speaking with a quinine attorney.
