Cutaneous Hyperpigmentation Due to Chronic Quinine Ingestion
Rosen T, Aponte C
Cutis. 2005;75:114-116.

Striking hyperpigmentation developed on the arms of a 66-year-old man following protracted oral ingestion of quinine. Although this phenomenon is well described in conjunction with other similar drugs, including quinidine, it has not been well documented following exposure to quinine. This adverse event is cosmetic in nature and is not associated with functional impairment.
