Characteristics of artemisinin

Artemisinin is extracted from the stems and leaves of Artemisia annua,usually by distillation,extraction or cold extraction.The extracted artemisinin is then purified and synthesized to produce a higher purity artemisinin.It is worth noting that when artemisinin is heated to 60 degrees Celsius,its structure will be destroyed and lose activity,so the traditional Chinese medicine decoction method is not suitable for artemisinin extraction.

Artemisinin is an important antimalarial drug,which can effectively treat malaria,especially for severe and malignant malaria or cerebral malaria,and can play a very good alleviating role.However,the use of artemisinin should be strictly in accordance with the doctor's advice,avoid private use,and you need to closely monitor your own condition during the use of artemisinin.Artemisinin is usually prohibited for people who are allergic to the drug ingredient,but it should be used with caution during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
