Buy NowPiramal TS is a potent antimalarial medication combining dihydroartemisinin 120mg and piperaquine 960mg. This combination drug is designed to effectively treat and prevent malaria, targeting multiple stages of the parasite’s life cycle.
Uses
Piramal TS is primarily used for the treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria, a serious and potentially life-threatening parasitic infection transmitted through mosquito bites. It is particularly effective in regions with high malaria prevalence and drug-resistant strains.
Benefits
- Rapid elimination of malaria parasites
- Effective against drug-resistant malaria strains
- Comprehensive parasite life cycle interruption
- Reduced risk of treatment failure
- Simplified dosing regimen
- Improved patient compliance
- Supports faster recovery
- Potential prophylactic benefits
How It Works
Piramal TS works through a dual-action mechanism. Dihydroartemisinin rapidly kills malaria parasites by generating free radicals that damage parasite proteins and membranes. Piperaquine provides prolonged antimalarial activity by interfering with parasite metabolism and preventing reinfection.
