Quinine Sulphate

Product Description

Quinine Sulphate is a naturally occurring alkaloid derived from the bark of the cinchona tree. It has been widely used for centuries as a potent antimalarial agent. In modern medicine, Quinine Sulphate continues to serve as an essential therapeutic component, particularly for treating malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum, especially in regions with resistance to other antimalarial drugs. This API is available in both oral and injectable formulations, typically in salt form, to ensure stability and solubility.

In addition to its antimalarial use, Quinine Sulphate is also recognized for its muscle relaxant properties and is sometimes used for treating nocturnal leg cramps and related muscle spasms. At Prism Industries Pvt. Ltd., we produce high-quality Quinine Sulphate that complies with multiple pharmacopeial standards, ensuring global usability.
