How It Works
Amatem Softgel works through the combined action of its two active ingredients, Artemether and Lumefantrine, to combat malaria. Here’s how it works:
1. **Artemether**: This component is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and quickly enters red blood cells where malaria parasites reside. Artemether interferes with the parasite's ability to metabolize hemoglobin, which is essential for their survival. This disruption ultimately leads to the death of the parasites.
2. **Lumefantrine**: This ingredient acts more slowly but persists in the bloodstream for an extended period after Artemether has cleared. Lumefantrine continues to eliminate any remaining parasites, preventing their resurgence and thereby reducing the chances of a malaria relapse.
Together, Artemether and Lumefantrine provide a dual mechanism of action that targets and destroys the malaria parasites at different stages of their life cycle, effectively treating uncomplicated malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage regimen to ensure complete treatment and prevent the development of resistance.
