Quinine works against malaria by interfering with the parasite's ability to digest hemoglobin in red blood cells. It inhibits the conversion of hemoglobin into hemozoin, leading to toxic levels of heme that accumulate and ultimately kill the Plasmodium parasites. Additionally, quinine affects the parasite's metabolic processes and disrupts its ability to replicate. This combination of actions makes quinine effective as an antimalarial treatment.
