What makes Chloroquine worth checking carefully

Antiparasitic medicines are organism-specific. A product for worms, protozoa, malaria, mites, or lice may not help another parasitic condition.

For Chloroquine, the starting fact is its catalog description: An aminoquinoline compound that disrupts the growth of parasites and modulates immune system responses. That sentence tells you what to verify next - the diagnosis, the product form, and the instructions that come with the exact listing.
