How It Works

Piramal Suspension combines the potent antimalarial effects of two active ingredients: dihydroartemisinin and piperaquine. Dihydroartemisinin, a derivative of artemisinin, rapidly reduces the number of parasites in the bloodstream, while piperaquine acts as a longer-acting partner drug, eliminating any remaining parasites and preventing recrudescence. This synergistic action ensures complete clearance of the parasite while minimizing the risk of resistance development.

Dosage and Administration

Take Piramal Suspension with food or a milky drink to enhance absorption. Shake well before use to ensure uniform distribution of the active ingredients.
