Highly lipophilic antimalarial drugs, artemether and lumefantrine, whilst an effective fixed-dose combination treatment to lower the malarial disease burden, are therapeutically hindered by low aqueous solubility and varied bioavailability.

ABSTRACT Malaria in pregnancy poses significant risks to the mother, fetus, and neonate, necessitating effective treatment and prevention strategies. This study explored the application of an individualized (‘virtual twin’) physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach to the antimalarial drug piperaquine in pregnant women.

The clinical efficacy of artemether/lumefantrine (Coartem®) [PDF]
Las directrices actuales de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) para el tratamiento de la malaria falciparum no complicada recomiendan el uso de la terapia combinada basada en artemisinina (ACT). Arteméter/lumefantrina es un ACTO precalificado por la OMS por su eficacia, seguridad y calidad, aprobado por Swissmedic en diciembre de 2008 y ...

ABSTRACT Severe malaria remains a major cause of acute kidney injury and multiorgan failure in endemic regions, often requiring renal replacement therapy. However, access to dialysis is limited in many resource‐constrained settings, making outcomes highly dependent on early diagnosis and effective antimalarial treatment. We report a 32‐year‐old man who

ABSTRACT Background Malaria is a major public health issue in East Africa, leading to widespread illness and fatalities, especially among vulnerable populations such as children under 5 years of age and pregnant women. Artemisinin‐based combination therapies (ACTs) are the primary treatment modality; however, their efficacy is undermined by the ...

Research into advanced therapeutics for malaria are rare. We investigate how linker chemistry governs the release kinetics of the antimalarial lumefantrine from polyethylene glycol conjugates. A clear correlation between diacid linker length and drug release rate is established, enabling rational design of conjugates with controlled release.
