Pharmacogenomics:

G6PD deficiency is an inherited X-linked genetic trait wherein women may be homozygous or heterozygous for a variant, while men may be hemizygous. Both homozygous deficient women and hemizygous deficient men may experience a full expression of G6PD deficiency. The prevalence of different G6PD variants varies geographically and approx 400 million people are estimated to carry genetic variation leading to G6PD deficient activity. G6PD deficiency may be correlated with malaria distribution worldwide, and with high frequency in individuals from Mediterranean basin, Southeast Asia, Africa, Middle East, and India.

It has been reported that patients receiving quinine for the treatment of malaria, including those who are with G6PD deficiency are at an increased risk of developing acute haemolytic anaemia The cause for the acute hemolytic anaemia in quinine-treated patients with malaria and its potential relationship with G6PD deficiency has not been determined. Closely monitor Hb and hematocrit levels during quinine treatment. Quinine should be discontinued if patients develop acute hemolytic anaemia.

Quá liều
Symptoms: Vomiting, tinnitus, deafness, headache, vasodilation, visual disturbance, convulsions, impairment of consciousness, respiratory depression, QT prolongation, ventricular arrhythmia, cardiogenic shock, renal failure, hypokalaemia, hypoglycaemia, and miscarriage. Management: Symptomatic and supportive treatment.

Increased risk of inducing ventricular arrhythmia with halofantrine or other drugs known to prolong QT interval (e.g. amiodarone, astemizole, terfenadine, cisapride, moxifloxacin, pimozide, thioridazine). Increased risk of convulsion with mefloquine. May potentiate the effects of anticoagulants, neuromascular blocking agents and oral hypoglycaemic. Reduced renal clearance of amantadine. Decreased plasma concentrations with carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, rifampicin. Increased plasma concentration with ritonavir. May delay or decrease absorption with Al- and/or Mg-containing antacids. Reduced plasma levels of ciclosporin. Increased plasma levels of digoxin. Increased risk of myopathy and rhabdomyolysis with atorvastatin.

Tác dụng
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Quinine, a cinchona alkaloid and a 4-methanolquinoline antimalarial drug, is a rapidly acting schizontocide with activity against Plasmodium falciparum, P vivax, P ovale, and P malariae. It is active against the gametocytes of P malariae and P vivax, except against the mature gametocytes of P falciparum. Quinine depresses oxygen uptake and carbohydrate metabolism, and intercalates into the parasite’s DNA, thereby disrupting its replication and transcription.
Pharmacokinetics:
Absorption: Rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Time to peak plasma concentration: Approx 1-3 hours.
Distribution: Widely distributed throughout the body. Poorly penetrates CSF (approx 2-7% of plasma concentration). Crosses placenta and enters breast milk. Volume of distribution: 2.5-7.1 L/kg. Plasma protein binding: Approx 70% (healthy patients); ≥90% (malaria patients).
Metabolism: Extensively metabolised in the liver via oxidative CYP450 pathways primarily by CYP3A4 isoenzyme to form 3-hydroxyquinine and other metabolites.
Excretion: Via urine (approx 20% as unchanged drug); increases in acidic urine. Elimination half-life: Approx 11 hours (healthy patients).
