What is Chloroquine?

Chloroquine is used to prevent or treat malaria caused by mosquito bites in countries where malaria is common. Malaria parasites can enter the body through these mosquito bites, and then live in body tissues such as red blood cells or the liver. Chloroquine is used to kill the malaria parasites living inside red blood cells. You sometimes may need to take a different medication (such as primaquine) to kill the malaria parasites living in other body tissues. Both drugs may be needed for a complete cure and to prevent recurrence of the infection.

Chloroquine belongs to a class of drugs known as antimalarials. During the blood stages of the life cycle of the malaria parasite, the parasite needs to degrade hemoglobin. Hemoglobin digestion releases free heme that is toxic to the parasite, so it is then polymerized to non-toxic hemozoin. Antimalarial quinolines are thought to interfere with this polymerization and kill the malaria parasite by the accumulation of toxic free heme.

Chloroquine is also used to treat amebiasis. Gastrointestinal amebiasis is an infection of the large intestine caused by microscopic one-celled parasites commonly known as amoebas. Chloroquine works by killing the parasite.
