Piperaquine

A bisquinoline antimalarial synthesised in the 1960s and long used in China; today it is given together with dihydroartemisinin in a combination therapy against Plasmodium falciparum malaria. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, metabolites, labelled standards, nitrosamines and other impurities.

Did you know?After declining in the 1980s it was rediscovered as an ideal partner for artemisinin derivatives: these clear the parasites quickly, while piperaquine stays in the blood for weeks and finishes the job.
