The Quinism Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2018 and headquartered in Port Huron, Michigan, is dedicated to promoting education and research on quinism. Quinism is a disease caused by poisoning from mefloquine, tafenoquine, chloroquine, and related quinoline drugs, with symptoms that can mimic various psychiatric and neurologic disorders.
Through their advocacy efforts, The Quinism Foundation raises awareness about the potential neuropsychiatric adverse effects of antimalarial drugs and supports individuals who have been impacted by chronic quinoline encephalopathy, also known as quinism. Their mission includes encouraging research, providing support, and advocating for those affected by the neurotoxicity of these medications.
