INTRODUCTIONLariago Syrup 60 ml belongs to the class of medications called 'quinoline' primarily used to treat malaria. Lariago Syrup 60 ml gives a degree of protection (prophylaxis) against malaria when people travel to areas where malarial cases exist. It is effective against Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium ovale, and Plasmodium malariae. Lariago Syrup 60 ml is not effective against Plasmodium falciparum. Besides this, it also treats amoebiasis (intestinal dysentery) and rheumatic disease (arthritis). Lariago Syrup 60 ml contains 'chloroquine' which acts by killing the malarial parasites, i.e. Plasmodium and stops the formation of the nontoxic heme metabolite hemozoin by the parasite. Heme part of the red blood cells is broken by the malarial, causing parasites. Lariago Syrup 60 ml prevents the breakdown of heme part and is actually toxic to the parasite. It kills the parasitic form living in red blood cells that resides in the liver. Lariago Syrup 60 ml should be taken as prescribed by your doctor.
