Product Overview
Artemether Suspension 15mg/5mL is an oral liquid formulation containing artemether, a semisynthetic derivative of artemisinin. Artemether is the methyl ether of dihydroartemisinin, which is itself derived from artemisinin, a naturally occurring compound isolated from the leaves of Artemisia annua L. (sweet wormwood). Each 5mL of the suspension provides 15mg of artemether in a palatable, easy-to-administer liquid form.
