Well, quinine never worked for me. What works for me is magnesium.
There is very little quinine in tonic water. The standard Rx dose was 260mg/tablet. About 20mg in 8oz. of tonic.

I was drinking some diet tonic this summer, when it was sooooo hot here, and I started getting major GI disturbances--heart burn and other stomach discomforts. I used to drink plain tonic at parties (I don't like to drink alot in public etc) too.
I have also found that people with low calcium can get leg cramping too. Calcium channel blockers used for blood pressure can cause leg cramps as a side effect.
So do be careful.
