Description

Combat the onset of malaria with Biquinol, a high-potency antimalarial treatment engineered for rapid intervention and reliable recovery. This 20-tablet pack provides a specialised clinical formula designed to target malaria parasites at the source while aggressively managing the debilitating symptoms that accompany infection. Biquinol is a potent treatment. It should be administered strictly according to a healthcare provider's prescription to ensure the complete eradication of the infection and to prevent recurrence.

Features

 

  • Precise 250mg Formulation: Each tablet contains an exact, clinically measured dose to ensure consistent therapeutic efficacy without under- or over-dosing.
  • Film-Coated Exterior: The smooth, film-coated surface masks the naturally bitter taste of the active ingredients, making it significantly easier to swallow.
  • Moisture-Resistant Blister Packaging: Packaged in a durable, airtight 20-tablet blister strip to protect the compound from humidity and environmental degradation.
  • Stomach-Friendly Excipients: Carefully selected binders and fillers minimise the risk of severe gastrointestinal irritation often associated with antimalarial drugs.
  • GMP-Certified Manufacturing: Produced in state-of-the-art, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certified facilities to ensure 100% purity and safety.
  • Readily Scored Tablet: Features a bisect line allowing for easy and accurate halving if a modified dosage is prescribed by a physician.

Key Benefits

  • Rapid Eradication of Malaria Parasites: Formulated with potent active ingredients, this medication acts swiftly to disrupt the DNA synthesis of Plasmodium parasites in the red blood cells, ensuring rapid clearance of the infection.
  • Effective Prophylaxis for Endemic Travel: Provides a reliable shield against malaria transmission for individuals travelling to high-risk areas. When started before travel, it maintains therapeutic blood levels to prevent parasite colonisation.
  • Fast Relief from Associated Symptoms: By effectively neutralising the root cause of the infection, the tablet rapidly reduces debilitating symptoms such as recurring high fever, muscle aches, and severe chills.
  • High Bioavailability for Quick Absorption: Designed with advanced tablet composition technology, the medication ensures maximum absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, allowing the active compounds to reach peak blood concentration efficiently.
  • Extensively Tested Clinical Efficacy: Backed by decades of pharmacological research, this antimalarial medication is a cornerstone of tropical disease management, offering a predictable, safe, and highly trusted recovery pathway.

Directions for Use

For optimal results and to minimise side effects, follow these Biquinol dosage instructions carefully. Always strictly adhere to the regimen prescribed by your doctor.

1. Check Your Prescription: Confirm the exact duration and dosage with your healthcare provider. The regimen differs vastly between treatment (curing an active infection) and prophylaxis (preventing an infection).
2. Take with a Meal: Consume the tablet immediately after a full meal or with a glass of milk to prevent gastrointestinal upset and nausea.
3. Swallow Whole: Drink a full glass of water (200ml) and swallow the tablet whole. Do not crush, chew, or dissolve the tablet unless explicitly advised by your doctor, as it is extremely bitter.
4. Maintain Consistent Timing: For maximum efficacy, take the medication at the same time every day (or same day every week for prophylaxis) to maintain stable drug levels in your bloodstream.
5. Complete the Course: Continue taking the medication for the entire prescribed duration, even if your symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping early may lead to a relapse or drug-resistant parasites.

Pro Tip: If you vomit within 30 minutes of taking the dose, consult your doctor immediately, as you may need to take a replacement tablet to ensure proper absorption.

Safety Information

Read these critical indications and contraindications before starting your medical treatment:

  • Who Should NOT Use This Product: Individuals with a known hypersensitivity to 4-aminoquinoline compounds, patients with retinal or visual field changes, and those with a history of epilepsy.
  • Drug Interactions: Can interact adversely with antacids (space doses by at least 4 hours), cimetidine, ampicillin, and certain anti-arrhythmic medications. Always disclose your current prescription drugs to your doctor.
  • Pregnancy & Lactation: Consult a physician immediately if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or breastfeeding. While sometimes prescribed for malaria in pregnancy, the risks versus benefits must be evaluated clinically.
  • Side Effects: Common Biquinol side effects include mild nausea, stomach cramps, temporary blurred vision, or headache. Seek emergency medical care if you experience hearing loss, irregular heartbeats, or severe muscle weakness.
  • Liver & Kidney Impairment: Requires careful dosage adjustment. Regular monitoring is advised for prolonged use.
  • Keep Out of Reach of Children: Accidental overdose in children is extremely dangerous and potentially fatal. Store securely in a high, locked cabinet.

FAQs

The Biquinol tab is primarily used as an antimalarial medication to prevent and treat acute attacks of malaria. It works by interfering with the growth of parasites in the red blood cells of the human body. In specific clinical cases, doctors may also prescribe it for the management of certain autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus.

No. Because it contains potent active ingredients, it is a Schedule H prescription drug. You cannot buy Biquinol tab online or in-store without a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner. You can upload your prescription to our online pharmacy for seamless home delivery.

The Biquinol tablet price varies slightly depending on the pack size, local taxes, and ongoing pharmacy discounts. Generally, it is a highly affordable generic medicine. Please check the top of this product page for the most current pricing, offers, and availability.

Most patients tolerate the medication well when taken with food. However, mild Biquinol side effects can include nausea, diarrhoea, stomach cramps, and temporary visual disturbances. If you experience severe symptoms like ringing in the ears, muscle weakness, or irregular heartbeats, consult your doctor immediately.

The Biquinol dosage depends entirely on whether it is being used for treatment or prophylaxis. For treatment, a common adult dose might be 4 tablets initially, followed by 2 tablets after 6-8 hours, and 2 tablets daily for the next two days. Prophylaxis usually requires 2 tablets once a week. Always follow your doctor's exact instructions.

For active malaria treatment, you should begin to notice a reduction in fever and chills within 24 to 48 hours of starting the Biquinol medicine. However, you must complete the entire course prescribed to ensure complete parasite clearance and prevent a relapse.

It is strongly advised to avoid alcohol while taking this medication. Alcohol can exacerbate potential liver toxicity and worsen gastrointestinal side effects like nausea and dizziness, complicating your medical treatment.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and resume your normal dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up, as this increases the risk of side effects.

No. To maximise absorption and prevent stomach upset, it is highly recommended to take the tablet immediately after a meal or with a glass of milk. Taking it on an empty stomach increases the likelihood of nausea and vomiting.

It is highly effective against Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium malariae, and Plasmodium ovale. However, many strains of Plasmodium falciparum have developed resistance to this class of antimalarial medication. Your doctor will prescribe the correct drug based on the geographical region you are in or travelling to.
