Here's how Qinarsol 300 MG Injection 1 ML should be administered:

• The injection should always be administered in a hospital setting only by a qualified healthcare professional.

Qinarsol 300 MG Injection 1 ML is administered intravenously or via an intramuscular route by a healthcare professional.

Qinarsol 300 MG Injection 1 ML contains quinine (300 mg), which acts on your body as follows:

• Disrupts parasite digestion: Quinine interferes with the Plasmodium parasite's ability to digest haemoglobin. Haemoglobin is a protein in your red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen.

• Interferes with DNA replication: Quinine also disrupts the parasite's DNA replication process, hindering its growth and multiplication.

• Alters red blood cell membrane: The medicine changes the membrane of red blood cells infected by the parasite. This results in a buildup of toxic "haem", a component of haemoglobin, leading to the death of the parasite.

• Keep Qinarsol 300 MG Injection 1 ML at room temperature.

• Protect the injection from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Ensure the medicine is out of reach of children.

• Always check the expiration date printed on the pack before using it, and do not use it past this date.

• If you're managing malaria with Qinarsol 300 MG Injection 1 ML, it's crucial to prevent reinfection. Use mosquito nets and repellents and wear long-sleeved clothing to reduce the chances of getting bitten.

• As some patients may experience nausea as a side effect, maintaining a good hydration level can help. Ensure you drink plenty of fluids.
