How Paludrine Works
The active ingredient Proguanil Hydrochloride interferes with the malaria parasite’s ability to reproduce and survive inside the bloodstream. When taken correctly, Paludrine builds up protection against Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax, helping prevent malaria infection before it starts.
