Description
Artemether-Lumefantrine is used for the treatment of adults, children and infants with acute, uncomplicated infections due to Plasmodium falciparum or mixed infections including P. falciparum. Because this combination is effective against both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant P. falciparum, it is also recommended for malaria infections acquired in areas where the parasites may be resistant to other antimalarials.
Stand-by emergency treatment: Prescribers are advised to issue Artemether-Lumefantrine combination (to be carried for self-administration) to those tourists and business travelers who are considered to be non-immune and may be unable to obtain medical care within 24 hours of the onset of symptoms of malaria.
