P Alaxin Tabs 9's

KSh300.00

P ALAXIN TABS *9`S genuine general health product, available in store and online. P alaxin, an artemisinin based combined therapy is very reliable in treating malaria infection in areas of high resistance to conventional antimalarial drugs. It is an anti malaria drug that is composed of dihydroartemisinin and piperaquine phosphate. The drug combination is known to be reliable against P. vivax, P. malariae and the multi resistant P. falciparum malaria parasites. Dihydroartemisinin is the active metabolite of artemisinin and its derivatives. These derivatives havemore potent blood schizonticidal activity than the parent compound. Dihydroartemisinin is the most potent antimalarial of this group of compounds but it is also the least stable. Oral dihydroartemisinin is rapidly absorbed and has a short elimination half life. Piperaquine phosphate, a bisquinoline, structurally related to chloroquine has been shown to exhibit cardiovascular toxicity in overdose with significant electrophysiological effects on the ear.
