How it works
Aight-SP Kit Tablet is a combination of three medicines: Artesunate, Sulphadoxine, and Pyrimethamine, which treat malaria. Artesunate and Pyrimethamine are antiparasitic medicines that work by increasing the levels of haeme in the blood, a substance toxic to the malarial parasite. This kills the parasite and stops the infection from spreading. Sulphadoxine is an antibiotic that stops the bacteria from producing folic acid, a nutrient required for bacterial multiplication.
