Article Synopsis
- Malaria is a dangerous disease caused by single-celled parasites transmitted by female Anopheles mosquitoes, with chloroquine being a common treatment but facing resistance in various Southeast Asian countries.
- Drug resistance to chloroquine and other treatments has been growing since 1957, particularly in places like Cambodia and India, making it increasingly difficult to effectively treat malaria.
- Chloroquine has numerous side effects, including nausea, vomiting, and more; thus, there is a pressing need for the development of new antimalarial medications to combat resistance and minimize adverse effects.
