Primaquine

An 8-aminoquinoline antimalarial, synthesised in 1946 by Robert Elderfield at Columbia University: it clears the dormant liver forms of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium ovale, preventing relapses. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards, nitrosamines and other impurities.

Did you know?A single low dose also kills the gametocytes of Plasmodium falciparum, the parasite forms that pass to the mosquito: this is why the WHO recommends it to reduce malaria transmission.
