Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, it is the loss of electrolytes in the urine in form of sodium , potassium and bicarbonate which are responsible for te sweating during deep sleep.

* However, as the water was containing quinine in it, a quinine blood level is mandatory to look out into the overdose of the same giving systemic toxicity issue.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
