What is Primaquine Phosphate?
Active Ingredients: Primaquine Phosphate
Primaquine Phosphate Tablets are an antimalarial drug used to prevent and treat malaria caused by mosquito bites. This medication is used after other drugs have killed malaria parasites in red blood cells. It is used to kill parasites living in other body tissues, which helps to prevent the infection from returning.
This medication may also be in combination with other drugs to treat Pneumocystis pneumonia.
Primaquine is an 8-aminoquinoline. It works by interfering with the parasite's mitochondria.
