8 Betwee340AD Anti-fever properties of qinghao first described by Ge Hong in China

9 Between 1620 and 1630 AD Spanish Jesuit missionaries in Peru learn the healing power of a tree bark

10 1632 Jesuit Barnabé de Cobo takes Cinchona bark to Europe

11 1633 Properties of the bark in the treatment of malaria first written by Father Antanio de la Calancha

12 1640 Juan de Lugo first employed the tincture of the cinchona bark for treating malaria in Countess of Chinchon

13 1658 The first prescription of cinchona in England by Robert Brady

14 1670s Robert Talbor develops an infusion of cinchona powder in white wine and uses it as a 'secret remedy'

15 1712 Fransesco Torti writes a book on the therapeutic properties of the bark

16 1742 Linnaeus, a Swedish botonist, classifies the Peruvian bark and names the tree cinchona

17 1820 French chemists Joseph Pelletier and Jean Biename Caventou isolate quinine

38 ADVERSE DRUG REACTION: -Cinchonism -Hypersensitivity -Hematologic -Stimulate uterine contractions -Severe hypotension -ECG –  QTc -Blackwater fever

39 DRUG INTERACTION Do not give with mefloquine Increased warfarin, digoxin levels Antacids Treatment of nocturnal cramps Cocktail purpura

40 MEFLOQUINE: for chloroquine resistant pf -only orally -Long t½ - 20days – weekly dose for chemoprophylaxis MOA unknown Uses: Prophylaxis Treatment: NOT for severe/complicated malaria ARTESUNATE + MEFLOQUINE ---South East Asia

41 Mefloquine ADR: GI Headache, dizziness Seizures, psychosis 50% Leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia Deranged LFT Arrhythmias, bradycardia,

42 MEFLOQUINE: Contraindications: Epilepsy, psychiatry, arrhythmias NOT WITH: Quinine, Halofantrine.

43 ARTEMISININ DRUGS Immediate onset and rapid reduction of parasitaemia with complete clearance in most cases within 48 hours Clinical recovery of the patient, e.g. defervescence is faster than with other antimalarials Efficacy is high even in areas with multidrug resistant strains.

44 ARTEMISININ Artemisinin is not very soluble either in water or oil. Converted to dihydroartemisinin, which is a potent antimalarial compound Available for oral and rectal use in several countries in Asia.

45 DERIVATIVES OF ARTEMISININ USED IN TREATMENT OF MALARIA Artemether Arteether Artesunate

46 ARTEMETHER Methyl ether of dihydroartemisinin Superior to intravenous quinine with respect to survival and parasite clearance Available as tablets, capsules and as IM injectable form In India, available as 40mg capsules and 80mg/ml ampoule

47 ARTEMETHER CAPSULES - MONOTHERAPY

48 ARTEMETHER CAPSULES + MEFLOQUINE TABLETS

49 ARTEMETHER INJECTION

50 ARTEETHER Ethyl ether of dihydroartemisinin Therapeutically equivalent to quinine in cerebral malaria Available as  arteether and  /  arteether  arteether developed by WHO and The Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR)  /  arteether developed by CDRI

51 ARTEETHER A longer t 1/2 beta and more lipophilic properties than artemether favouring accumulation in brain tissue and thus the treatment of cerebral malaria were regarded as advantages over the other compounds. Available as 150mg per 2ml ampoule

52 RAPITHER - AB INJECTION (IM Only)

53 ARTESUNATE Water soluble hemisuccinate derivative Used for oral, rectal, intravenous and intramuscular administration. Available as tablets and as powder with separate vial containing 5% sodium bicarbonate In India, available as 50mg tablets and 60mg/ml injection In China also available as 100mg suppository and in Switzerland available as 200mg rectocap

54 ARTESUNATE TABLETS - MONOTHERAPY

55 ARTESUNATE TABS + MEFLOQUINE TABS

56 ARTESUNATE INJECTION

57 MECHANISM OF ACTION iron-mediated cleavage of the peroxide bridge and generation of an organic free radical. Haem bound iron (but also free iron) may serve as a catalyst. The artemisinin radical binds subsequently to membrane proteins, and alkylation reactions eventually cause destruction of the parasite.

58 ANTIMALARIAL EFFICACY Rapidly acting blood schizontocidal antimalarials against chloroquine sensitive and chloroquine resistant falciparum as well as vivax malaria quickly arrest the ring or the trophozoite development and also prevent pathological sequelae Fever subsides and parasites are cleared rapidly Defervescence occurs within 2-3 days after drug administration Ninety percent clearance of asexual erythrocytic parasitaemia is usually observed within 4 hours

60 ARTEMISININ DERIVATIVES – EFFECTS ON ROSETTING AND CYTOADHERANCE erythrocytes containing mature forms of P. falciparum ahdere to microvascular endothelium cytoadherance. disappears from circulation→ sequestration. Erythrocytes containing mature parasites also adhere to uninfected parasites, leading to the formation of “rosettes”.

61 Cytoadherance and rosetting → microcirculatory obstruction in falciparum malaria, All artemisinin drugs prevent the development of ring stage parasites to the more mature pathogenic stages that rosette and cytoadhere to capillaries

62 PHARMACOKINETICS Absorption of orally administered artemisinin or its derivatives seems to be rapid but incomplete Substantial hydrolysis of artesunate (probable complete) and artemether into dihydroartemisinin probably occurs even before absorption Elimination is mainly by hepatic metabolism Arteether has much slower elimination

63 Artesunate, artemether, arteether and probably also artemisinin itself are transformed into dihydro- artemisinin, which is subsequently converted into inactive metabolites

64 INDICATIONS As a safe and effective alternative to quinine in the treatment of severe malaria Treatment of uncomplicated malaria - limited to patients infected with multidrug resistant malaria

65 ADR The artemisinins are extremely well tolerated and virtually without adverse effects Toxicological studies in animals have shown that the toxicity of artemisinin, artemether and artesunate is much less than that of chloroquine. Significant adverse effects or signs of toxicity of the artemisinins have not been reported in human patients treated with therapeutic dosages

66 ADR Common adverse effects - Headache, nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting, occasional diarrhoea, symptoms that are associated with with malaria and which resolve with appropriate treatment. Animal studies have demonstrated limited symptomatic and pathological evidence of neurotoxicity following the parenteral administration of high doses of either artemether or arteether

67 There is no clinical evidence of serious neurotoxicity from the use of any artemisinin drug in man in prospective studies of over 10000 patients.

68 PRIMAQUINE: Radical care. 3 major metabolites – less antimalarial activity - more hemolysis MOA: UNKNOWN Uses: - Radical care of vivax & ovale - Terminal prophylaxis of vivax & ovale - Terminal Chemoprophylaxis of malaria - Patient jiroveci + Clindamycin

69 ADR: Nausea, epigastric pain, abdominal, cramps, headache, - Hematological, G6 PD. - Cardiac arrhythmias - Masked hypotension parenterally - Not in pregnancy

Pregnancy Decrease Concentration with teracycline & Rifampin

71 INHIBITORS OF FOLATE SYNTHESIS: Pyrimethamine 25mg & Sulfadoxine 500 mg Proguanil → Cycloguanil M.O.A: Sequential blockade Uses: Prophylaxis: Chloroquine 500mg/wk & Proguanil 200mg/d Fansidar Maloprim → Pyrimethamine & Dapsone No longer used
