Quinine does help hair growth.

Especially Milva Quinine Water when used in your hair can help decrease hair loss and help future hair growth.

Milva Quinine Water decreases and stops hair loss.

Everyday use of Quinine Water and rubbing it into the hair roots strengthens the hair and accelerates its growth, makes it flexible and strong.

Add 2 tbsp. quinine water and 5 drops of lavender or rose essential oil.

 Apply the mixture on the hair and leave it on for about 30 minutes.

Quinine water is successfully combined with castor oil.

Quinine is a common treatment for malaria.

Some people believe that it can also help with leg cramps and restless legs syndrome.

Quinine comes from the bark of the cinchona tree.

This tree is native to central and South America, as well as some islands in the Caribbean and western parts of Africa.

Quinine is used to treat malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum. Plasmodium falciparum is a parasite that gets into the red blood cells in the body and causes malaria.

Quinine works by killing the parasite or preventing it from growing.

In the United States, quinine tablets are available only by prescription for the treatment of malaria (as Qualaquin).

In other countries, quinine may be available for leg cramps by prescription or over-the-counter.

Quinine, termed a "general protoplasmic poison" is toxic to many bacteria, yeasts, and trypanosomes, as well as to malarial plasmodia.

Quinine has local anesthetic action but also is an irritant.

The irritant effects may be responsible in part for the nausea associated with its clinical use.

Tonic water in general and Schweppes tonic water, in particular, contains no more than 83 mg of quinine/liter.

Schweppes quinine concentration is much less than the amount of quinine in the therapeutic dose of quinine tablets.

Specifically, Schweppes quinine content is 67 mg/liter.
