摘要: Despite considerable advances in the treatment and prevention of malaria, Plasmodium falciparum is still a threat to millions people across world, particularly sub-Saharan Africa, with infants young children bearing greatest burden terms morbidity mortality. Since 1999, artemisinin-based combination therapy artemether-lumefantrine (AL; Coartem) has been made available. A wealth evidence supports consistently high efficacy AL, favorable safety tolerability profile demonstrated. The child-friendly dispersible formulation AL proven be as effective well tolerated standard tablets, will encourage ease administration improved adherence drug regimen. This article reviews significant impact by on progress malaria control describes way forward for Novartis Malaria Initiative leading fight against malaria.
