Is Quinine Helpful To Relieve Leg Cramps At Night?
Hello,
I have terrible leg cramps at night. Along with other problems, I have cancer. But today at the gym a member was telling me that Quinine is a good product to use for the leg cramps. She mentioned a Schwepps drink with Quinine in it. What do you think, or could you suggest something else.
Thank you,
MJ Clapton
