Desmethyl ferroquine (SSR97213) is the active and major metabolite of Ferroquine. Ferroquine is an antimalarial. Desmethyl ferroquine shows significant activity against Chloroquine-susceptible and resistant P. falciparum strains In Vitro The estimate of the apparent terminal half-life of Ferroquine is 15.9 days. However, the equally active principal metabolite Desmethyl ferroquine (DMFQ) has a longer t 1/2z , with an overall mean estimate of 31.4 days. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. Form:Solid IC50& Target:Plasmodium
