Dihydroartemisinin(Cat No.:I004684)is a potent antimalarial drug derived from artemisinin, known for its rapid action against Plasmodium parasites responsible for malaria. It targets the parasite in its blood-stage by producing reactive oxygen species that damage critical cellular structures, leading to parasite death. Often used in artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs), dihydroartemisinin enhances treatment efficacy and helps prevent drug resistance. With a favorable safety profile and quick onset, it is effective in treating both uncomplicated and drug-resistant malaria, making it a vital component in global malaria control and treatment strategies.
