Cinchona officinalis tincture for medicinal use

Cinchona officinalis tincture is a concentrated liquid extract made from the bark of the Cinchona tree, which is native to South America.

This preparation is traditionally used in herbalism for its antimalarial properties due to the presence of quinine. It has been historically employed to treat malaria and other fever-related illnesses. In modern herbal practice, it may also be used to alleviate symptoms of inflammation and digestive discomfort.

However, its use is often limited due to potential side effects and the availability of more effective pharmaceutical alternatives.
