Sulfadoxine-Pyrimethamine Brand Names in Nigeria

We list 22 Sulfadoxine-Pyrimethamine products from the NAFDAC Greenbook — Nigeria's official register of approved products — of which 14 have a currently active registration, including 6 combination products that pair Sulfadoxine-Pyrimethamine with other ingredients. They are produced by manufacturers including Afrab-Chem, Dana Pharmaceuticals, Emzor Pharmaceutical Industries, Krishat Pharma Industries, Pauco Pharmaceutical Industry Nigeria, among others. Combination products, and registrations the Greenbook currently lists as inactive, are clearly marked — Greenbook listings can lag renewals, so always confirm the number printed on the pack. Because it is drawn from the live register, this is far more complete than a typical brand list.

10 companies hold active Sulfadoxine-Pyrimethamine registrations in the NAFDAC Greenbook. They include Emzor Pharmaceutical Industries, IPCA Pharma Nigeria, Tridem Pharma Nigeria, Afrab-Chem. The "applicant" recorded in the Greenbook is the registration holder — usually the manufacturer or its Nigerian representative — and the full table above shows the applicant for every registered product.

Each brand here holds a NAFDAC registration in the Greenbook. However, counterfeiters sometimes copy a genuine NAFDAC number onto a fake product, so always confirm that the brand, manufacturer (applicant), and strength printed on the pack match the record before you buy, and purchase only from licensed pharmacies.
