About Antimalarial Drugs.

Antimalarial drugs are an anti-infective class of medications designed to prevent and treat infections caused by parasitic *Plasmodium* species.

They function through diverse stage-specific mechanisms, such as inhibiting hemoglobin degradation, generating toxic reactive radicals, disrupting mitochondrial electron transport, or inhibiting parasite folate synthesis.

While primarily indicated for malaria prophylaxis and the management of uncomplicated or severe malaria, select members—notably 4-aminoquinolines like hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine—also serve as immunomodulatory agents in rheumatologic disorders including systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis.
