Abstract
ObjectiveTo identify a new, safe and effective source to combat and prevent drug resistant malaria therapeutically and to make it as a home-made bio-medicine which is called as OMARIA (Orissa malaria research indigenous attempt) and use it on long term basis (decade) in mono clinical station and in field. MethodsThe rind of a lesser known Indian indigenous fruit dalimba/Punica granatum (P. granatum) is taken. Manual process to make a hand-made or home-made bio-medicine is done. Hand-filled into gelatin capsules and administered as an internal medicine. Therapy to 532 clinical cases is given at the Govt Red Cross Clinic, and Prophylaxis at site is administered to 401 cases by adopting 3 villages. ResultsHydrophyllic, ellagitannins viz., punicalagin (C48H28O30; mw 1100∼1125), punicalin (C34H22O22; mw 780∼785), ellagic acid (C14H6O8; mw 302) and K+ co-exists as the only drug moieties. OMARIA has no other confounding or confabulating compounds. There is non alkaloid. ConclusionsOMARIA delivers therapeutics and prophylaxis to drug resistant Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) cases. There are no side effects and no contradictions. Non-toxic at bolus/loading doses. No case progressed to cerebral malaria. OMARIA is a first time work. Original report on pan global basis.
