Anti Malarial Drugs Market
Plasmodium parasites, a protozoan parasite, are the cause of the widespread infectious disease malaria. A parasite enters the body through the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito, which then travels to the liver, where the parasite is produced. Human malaria are generally caused by five types of plasmodium parasites, including P. falciparum, P. malariae, P. ovale, P. vivax, and P.knowlesi. The most dangerous parasite species among these are P. falciparum and P. vivax, which are also the ones responsible for the majority of malaria deaths. Antimalarial drugs are used for the treatment and prevention of malaria infection. Most antimalarial drugs target the erythrocytic stage of malaria infection, which is the phase of infection that causes symptomatic illness. Early diagnosis and efficient treatment are crucial measures to control malaria. Different types of drugs such as quinine, chloroquine, mefloquine, proguanil, primaquine, and others are used in the treatment of malaria. Moreover, some combination drugs such as Pyrimethamine & sulfadoxine, Artemether & lumefantrine, and others are also prescribed for treating the disease.
