Lariago tablet is an antimalarial medication that prevents the polymerization of heme into hemozoin (a food source for the malarial parasite). It forms a drug-hemozoin complex, and this complex caps the polymerizing chain, thereby preventing additional polymerization.
Along with the prevention of polymerization, the free heme accumulates in the food vacuole, exerting its toxic effects on the parasite. This kills the parasite and stops the spread of infection..

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible. If it is near the time of the next dose, then skip the missed dose.
