Tonic Water

The tonic water works! I had an eye twitch for about 1 1 /2 weeks. I drank around 3 oz. of tonic water (nasty stuff! ) and about 1-2 hours later my eye started watering. It twitched just a few times more throughout the night and then felt dry and itchy. I put on a brewed tea bag for about 20 minutes and woke up good as new the next morning! It has not returned since (about 2 weeks age).

Rapid eye twitch in left eye for 2 days.

Further to this 2007 suggestion of tonic water. I went looking for a tonic water (shudder) without sugar or corn syrup. Even the high priced one had sugar. And was almost $4 for one lousy soda.

It was recommended to me to try JUST Quinine which is the ingredient in tonic water that the OP was talking about. A supplement called Leg Cramps with Quinine was $23 for 100 caplets. I bought those to try and dissolved 3 immediately under my tongue.

I don't know how it works, but it worked. And in record time. I have also been overdoing the work outs the past week and my persistant leg cramps went away as well. I am amazed.

Doing a search for Quinine online made me a little uneasy as there are side effects for some. I will report back if the twitches return. But in a nutshell. Quinine stopped the eye twitch cold!

Thank you so much for that suggestion of tonic water/quinine.

I was ready to stick a lit cigarette in my ear (above) lol, Sam

I had an annoying eye twitch lasting already two months before seeking help from my eye doctor. He said to drink tonic water for the quinine. Quinine is a muscle relaxant, and sure enough, the twitch subsided that very day.
