Artemisinin (Standardized, extracted from Artemisia annua L.) - Dietary Supplement
Holley Pharmaceuticals and its affiliates have been farming, harvesting, extracting, purifying and manufacturing artemisinin and its derivatives for over two decades. Our artemisinin-based antimalaria drugs are sold all over the world.
Holley artemisinin is manufactured in our own GMP- certified factories in China and meets pharmaceutical grade standards. Each batch of our artemisinin is assayed for purity using HPLC and tested for in vitro bioactivity.
cGMP certified by SDA (FDA in China)
Holley artemisinin is tested and used by univeristy labs, research institutes and hospitals for their research projects and medical trials.
Recently, low quality artemisinin products and even counterfeits imported from Southeast Asia found in the markets. We would like to advise consumers to purchase artemisinin only from familiar sources and do not believe in cheap alternatives. One way to ensure high quality is to ask your vendor to provide you with the certificate proving that their artemisinin was manufactured in a certified GMP (Good Manufacture Practice) facility.
