Lumefantrine(Cat No.:I004976)is an antimalarial drug that is commonly used in combination with Artemether. Together, they form a combination therapy known as artemether-lumefantrine (AL). This combination is considered a first- and second-line treatment for malaria, particularly caused by Plasmodium falciparum. Lumefantrine works by inhibiting the growth and reproduction of the malaria parasite, while artemether acts to rapidly reduce the parasite load. The combination therapy is effective against both uncomplicated and severe malaria cases and has become a widely used treatment option in many malaria-endemic regions.
