Chloroquine diphosphate

An antimalarial drug used for the treatment and prevention of malaria caused by chloroquine-sensitive Plasmodium species. Chloroquine accumulates in the acidic digestive vacuoles of malaria parasites and interferes with heme detoxification, leading to the accumulation of toxic heme species. It also increases lysosomal pH and modulates endosomal and lysosomal processes, contributing to its anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Clinical use is limited by widespread resistance in Plasmodium falciparum and potential adverse effects, including retinopathy and cardiac toxicity
