About Artemether-Lumefantrine
Artemether-Lumefantrine (commonly known as Coartem or Lonart) is the number one recommended treatment for uncomplicated malaria in Nigeria. It belongs to a class of drugs called Artemisinin-based Combination Therapies (ACTs), which combine two different antimalarial compounds to fight malaria parasites more effectively and reduce the chances of drug resistance developing. In Nigeria, where malaria is endemic and accounts for a significant percentage of hospital visits especially during the rainy season, Artemether-Lumefantrine is the go-to drug recommended by both the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Health.
