“quinine”
My mother has been gone 30 years but I thought of her and her quinine/4 way cold tablets alot through the pandemic.
She treated an amazing range of ailments with it.
Must have been ok, I’m still here.
I suppose dimwit governor’s like Oregon won’t allow it still.

Get Tonic Water with quinine. It works like a miracle.
Use it to prevent leg cramps, or use it to prevent them.
I get it in diet tonic, but don’t know if the dosage is enough to be medicinal.
When I was little, quite often a missionary friend from Liberia would stay with us for long periods of time. When his malaria would appear Dad had to get quinine from the druggist. I guess it’s the only thing that worked then.

If you’re not just joking, and DO have leg cramps at night, a shot glass-full swig of Pickle Juice from the jug of Kosher Dills that EVERYONE keeps in the fridge, works wonders. My sister is plagued with them and this works for her.
I drink Vodka Tonics in the summer months - tonic water has quinine in it. I’ve had a leg cramp, ONCE, and that was after a very strenuous, hot, farm-project day when I didn’t drink enough water.
Do, also up your water intake! But that’s just good advice for everyone.
Other than that, I got nothin’... :)
“”Can I get some quinine for my leg cramps again?””
Can’t you get it anymore? I tried it one time and it was ghastly - never tried it again. I settle for OTC Hyland tablets...I still have to get up in the night to use Theraworx occasionally and it really does work to relieve the cramps immediately.
