Arti Forte 80mg/480mg

Arti Forte combines Artemether (80mg) and Lumefantrine (480mg) to effectively treat malaria, including cases resistant to chloroquine. This combination works by rapidly killing the malaria parasite in the bloodstream and preventing its further growth, helping restore health and reduce the risk of relapse.

Key Benefits

• Provides fast and effective treatment for malaria infections.

• Targets both early and mature parasite stages.

How It Works

• Artemether quickly attacks and destroys malaria parasites in the blood, offering rapid symptom relief.
