The 4 major drug classes currently used to treat malaria include quinoline-related compounds, antifolates, artemisinin derivatives, and antimicrobials.No single drug that can eradicate all forms of the parasite's life cycle has been discovered or manufactured yet.

Treatment regimens are dependent on the geographic location of infection the likely Plasmodium species and the severity of disease presentation.
