    Product Description

    Artemether-d3 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of artemether (Item No. 11815) by GC- or LC-MS. Artemether is an antiparasitic agent and a derivative of artemisinin (Item No. 11816).1 It induces mortality in adult wild-type and pfatp6-mutant P. falciparum but the efficacy is decreased in the mutants (IC50s = 8.2 and 13.5 nM, respectively).2 Artemether reduces parasitemia in P. falciparum-infected monkeys and P. berghei-infected mice with 50% curative dose (CD50) values of 7.1 and 55 mg/kg, respectively.3 It also reduces the worm burden of S. mansoni trematodes in mice when used at doses ranging from 200 to 500 mg/kg.1 Formulations containing artemether have been used in the treatment of malaria.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
