Quinine
PubChem CID 3034034Molecular formula: C20H24N2O2
The theorized mechanism of action for quinine and related anti-malarial drugs is that these drugs are toxic to the malaria parasite. Specifically, the drugs interfere with the parasite's ability to break down and digest hemoglobin. Consequently, the parasite starves and/or builds up toxic levels of partially degraded hemoglobin in itself. Quinine has a local anesthetic action and analgesic, antipyretic, and oxytocic effects. Quinine also has cardiovascular effects similar to those of quinidine.
