if quinidine has anti-cholenergic (atropine-like) effects... why does it give 1/3 of patients diarrhea? I thought GI stimulation was parasympathetic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.125.28.36 (talk) 02:55, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The history section talks most about quinine and then jumps to quinidine. When were they separated (and how) ? - Rod57 (talk) 22:34, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is a "do not confuse" flag in both quinine and quinidine, but they appear (in the chemical formula and skeletal diagram, as well as the listed characteistics like molecular weight) to be identical. Are they merely two different medical uses of the same compound, or are they chemically different in some (unspecified in the article or data page) way?
