ARTESUNATE
COARTEM (artemether/lumefantrine)
Antimalarials – Artemisinin and Derivatives comprises a therapeutic class of fast-acting antiparasitic agents, including artemisinin, artesunate, artemether, and dihydroartemisinin.
These compounds exert their parasiticidal action via an essential endoperoxide bridge that undergoes iron- or heme-mediated cleavage within intraerythrocytic parasites, generating reactive free radicals that disrupt vital parasite proteins, organelles, and membrane transport systems.
Clinically, they are indicated for the prevention and treatment of *Plasmodium* infections, representing the core component of artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) for uncomplicated falciparum malaria and intravenous regimens for severe malaria.
