Description
Curator's Comment:: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4036668/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8891104

Artesunate (AS) is a medication used to treat malaria. Although not FDA-approved for use in the United States, artesunate is used as the treatment of choice for severe malaria by the World Health Organization (WHO) over quinidine. Upon administration, artesunate is rapidly hydrolyzed to dihydroartemisinin, which is the most active schizonticidal metabolite. In hemoglobin-rich red blood cells, infected by plasmodia, endoperoxide bond of artesunate undergoes cleavage and releases a cascade of reactive intermediates-cytotoxic free radicals, which cause damage to parasites by alkylation of proteins and DNA.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Curator's Comment:: Oral route is possible: One group of 45 patients received 400 mg of Sodium artesunate on the first day of treatment and then 200 mg daily for 4 days for a total of 1200 mg (group I: 5-day treatment). A second group of 46 patients received 400 mg of Sodium artesunate on the first day of treatment and then 200 mg daily for 6 days for a total of 1600 mg (group II: 7-day treatment). 5- or 7-day regimens of sodium artesunate with a total dose of 1200-1600 mg are effective and safe in treating falciparum malaria acquired in Thailand. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9241384
Eurartesim (piperaquine tetraphosphate (PQP)/ dihydroartemisinin (DHA)) should be taken over 3 consecutive days for a total of three doses taken at the same time each day. The tablets are available in two strengths: PQP 160mg/DHA 20mg and PQP 320mg/DHA 40mg. The dose is determined by the patient’s body weight.

PRIMARY Description: A fine, white crystalline powder. Solubility: Very slightly soluble in water; very soluble in dichloromethane R; freely soluble in ethanol (~750 g/l) TS and acetone R. Category: Antimalarial. Storage: Artesunate should be kept in a well-closed container or, if sterile, in a hermetically closed container. It should be protected from light. Labelling: The label states where applicable:? that the substance is free from bacterial endotoxins;? that the substance is sterile. Definition: Artesunate contains not less than 96.0% and not more than 102.0% of artesunate (C19H28O8) using Assay method A, and not less than 98.0% and not more than 102.0% of artesunate (C19H28O8) using Assay method B, both calculated with reference to the anhydrous substance.
