Chloroquine
An antimalarial and anti-inflammatory drug that interferes with heme detoxification in plasmodium parasites and modulates lysosomal pH and immune signaling in human cells. It is used to treat and prevent malaria caused by susceptible Plasmodium species and to treat autoimmune conditions including rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Long-term use requires ophthalmologic monitoring due to the risk of irreversible retinal toxicity.
