Miltefosine is an oral antiprotozoal agent used to treat visceral, cutaneous, and mucosal leishmaniasis. It works by disrupting cell membrane phospholipid metabolism in Leishmania parasites, leading to parasite death. It is also used as part of combination therapy for rare amoebic infections. The treatment is taken orally for several weeks and requires monitoring for gastrointestinal effects and liver or kidney function changes. It should not be used during pregnancy due to teratogenic risks.

Product Description:
Miltefosine is an alkylphosphocholine, originally developed as an anticancer agent, and it is an antiprotozoal rather than an antifungal. It interferes with lipid metabolism and membrane signalling in Leishmania parasites, disrupting their cell membranes and triggering programmed cell death. Its importance is simple: it is the only oral treatment for leishmaniasis, a disease otherwise treated with painful injectable antimonials or intravenous amphotericin.
It is used for visceral, cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis, in a course of around twenty-eight days. Visceral leishmaniasis is fatal untreated and affects some of the poorest populations in South Asia, East Africa and Brazil, so an oral option changes what treatment programmes can deliver. Two constraints matter: it is teratogenic, so pregnancy must be excluded and effective contraception used during and for months after treatment, and because a full course is taken at home, incomplete adherence risks resistance. Vomiting and diarrhoea are very common.
Sourcing notes. Access has largely run through WHO and donation programmes rather than commercial channels, and registration outside endemic regions is limited. This product belongs under antiparasitic, not antifungal.
