Chloroquine Phosphate 40mg/mL, 30mL Injection
SKU GME584Product Introduction
Chloroquine injection is an antimalarial for susceptible malaria parasites when parenteral treatment is necessary. Resistance patterns determine suitability; it should not be presented as effective against every malaria infection.
How to use
Administration belongs in a monitored clinical setting using the exact injectable label and a weight-based plan. Chloroquine base and phosphate quantities are not numerically equivalent, and rapid administration can be dangerous.
How it works
Chloroquine accumulates in parasite food vacuoles and interferes with detoxification of haem released from haemoglobin digestion.
Side effects
Nausea, itching, headache and injection-site reactions can occur; cardiac rhythm disturbances and severe hypotension are serious risks.
Important information
Tell your doctor about cardiac conduction problems, seizures, low glucose and interacting QT-prolonging drugs. Severe malaria requires urgent treatment using the recommended local protocol.
Uses
- Malaria due to chloroquine-susceptible parasites when injectable treatment is indicated
Benefits
Clears susceptible blood-stage parasites and helps control malaria symptoms.
Can it be used for malaria anywhere?
No. Chloroquine-resistant malaria is common in many regions, so location and species matter.
Does it prevent relapse of every malaria species?
No. Dormant liver stages of P. vivax or P. ovale may need a different medicine after G6PD assessment.
Can it be injected at home?
No. The formulation requires clinical supervision because dosing and cardiac effects can be hazardous.
Are base and phosphate strengths interchangeable?
No. The prescriber must account for the salt-to-base conversion.
What symptoms suggest low blood sugar?
Sweating, shaking, unusual hunger or confusion need prompt glucose assessment.
Can heart-rhythm medicines interact?
Yes. Combining QT-prolonging medicines can increase arrhythmia risk.
What if fever persists after treatment?
Persistent fever needs reassessment for resistance, inadequate response or another diagnosis.
Is it a treatment for COVID-19?
No. Chloroquine should not be promoted as an established COVID-19 treatment.
