Those days the drugs of choice is chloroquine. I dunno if it contains the artemisinins. I guess it was days of monotherapy ☺️

Thank God those days are long gone. I couldn't tolerate that drug. Chloroquine is a different molecule than the artemisinins. Artesunate (found in Combisunate), artemether (in Lumartem) and dihydroartemisinin (in waipa) belong to the artemisinin family.
Fortunately for me, I was not prone to the chloroquine's itchiness.
Lol....you be baba na.
