It has been used to treat malaria (sometimes called "ague" in history), but isn't always effective for it nowadays. (The strains mutate and evolve quickly.)

Quinine is used regularly to cut heroin,and is not well known because the process usually happens early on in production when using quinine. it is usually undetectable and actually will intesify the drugs effects,while also adding g to profit. Many cases of heroin overdose are actually quinine overdose as it is very easy to o.d on..and also when withdrawl sets in, the quinine withdrawl will make your symptoms intensified and sometimes one can mistake a quinine withrawl for heroin cuz they don't even know they are using it. depending on your body and health,some peoples body simply cannot survive it....very few people even know they are ingesting the product let alone are aware of its effects.. anyone using or thinking of,or know someone who does use heroin should really reserch the partnership of the two drugs and their effects...
