Why this happens
Quinine can interfere with the way the liver breaks down ropinirole (by inhibiting the CYP1A2 enzyme), leading to higher levels of the medicine in your blood. Additionally, both drugs can potentially affect the electrical activity of the heart.
What you should do
You should speak to your doctor before taking these two medicines together. Your doctor may need to adjust your dose of ropinirole or monitor your heart health more closely. If you feel dizzy, faint, or experience a racing heartbeat, seek medical advice immediately.
