Coartem 20/120mg (18 Tablets) for Malaria Treatment Coartem 20/120mg is a world-class Artemisinin-based Combination Therapy (ACT) specifically formulated for the treatment of acute, uncomplicated malaria in children and adolescents. This 18-tablet pack is designed for individuals weighing between 25 kg and less than 35 kg. Manufactured by Novartis, Coartem is... the gold standard for malaria therapy in Nigeria, providing a rapid and effective response to Plasmodium falciparum parasites, including multi-drug resistant strains. How Coartem 20/120 Works Coartem combines two powerful antimalarial agents: Artemether: Provides rapid relief by significantly reducing the parasite load in the first few hours. Lumefantrine: Has a longer-lasting effect, clearing the remaining parasites from the blood and preventing the recurrence of malaria. Dosage and Administration for Children (25kg - <35kg) To ensure the infection is fully cleared, it is vital to complete the full 3-day course of 6 doses (total of 18 tablets): Day 1: Take 3 tablets immediately, followed by another 3 tablets after 8 hours. Day 2: Take 3 tablets in the morning and 3 tablets in the evening. Day 3: Take 3 tablets in the morning and 3 tablets in the evening. For better absorption, tablets should be taken with a fatty meal or milk. If your child vomits within one hour of taking a dose, a replacement dose should be administered immediately. Safety and Side Effects While Coartem is generally well-tolerated, some children may experience mild side effects such as loss of appetite, cough, or dizziness. If symptoms persist or if you have concerns about "how long does Coartem take to work," contact a Meddylab pharmacist for professional advice.
