Mechanism of Action:
The mechanism of action for Amodiaquine is not entirely clear; however, it is thought to inhibit digestion of hemoglobin in malarial parasites, inhibiting heme polymerase activity. The result is an accumulation of free heme, which is toxic to the parasite.
Spectrum: Amodiaquine has a similar spectrum of activity as chloroquine (Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium malariae) however; it has shown to be more effective against chloroquine resistant Plasmodium falciparum.
