- Quinine is a drug that is used to treat or prevent malaria. Quinine is the primary alkaloid found in the bark of the cinchona tree, which grows in many parts of South America. Quinine has been shown to inhibit syncytial virus infection by preventing viral protein synthesis and interfering with viral replication. Quinine also has antimicrobial effects and can be used to treat bacterial infections. Quinine may cause toxic epidermal necrolysis, which is a serious skin condition that causes blistering and peeling of the skin, as well as cardiac effects. The mechanism for this effect is not known but may involve inhibition of sodium ion channels on heart muscle cells.
