I was advised to drink a glass of tonic water daily because of the quinine in it for pain in my legs. However, I've since begun using MetanX which is working for me. Has anyone else ever heard about drinking tonic water and its safety for certain conditions?
Is it ever ok to drink a glass of tonic water (quinine) daily? Especially with MetanX?

Hi, i can't find any evidence suggesting that drinking tonic water with mentanx can cause bad side effects. That isn't to say it won't though? You should check with your doctor. Sometimes drugs react badly to the least likely foods and drinks, such as celexa doesn't mix well with grapefruit juice! Sorry this doesn't really answer your question though!

Thanks for your input. I don't see the doctor again for a couple of weeks, so was just curious. But since starting the MetanX, I have not been drinking the tonic water. As you suggested, I will wait and ask.
