Description

Artem Plus 80mg,480mg ds tablet

Administration Instructions. Coartem Tablets should be taken with food. Patients with acute malaria are frequently averse to food. Patients should be encouraged to resume normal eating as soon as food can be tolerated since this improves absorption of artemether and lumefantrine.
The other is lumefantrine, a broad-spectrum antibiotic that stays in the body for about seven days. Coartem is the most effective treatment for Plasmodium falciparum malaria, the more lethal form. Artemether is a very potent, but fast-clearing drug, which is why you take both it and lumefantrine.
Milk has been used as a vehicle for the delivery of antimalarial drugs during clinical trials to test for a food effect and artefenomel (OZ439) showed enhanced oral bioavailability with milk.

This medication is used in the treatment of malaria (disease caused by a parasite) and in resistant or mixed infections.

The combination of artemether and lumefantrine is used to treat certain kinds of malaria infections (a serious infection that is spread by mosquitoes in certain parts of the world and can cause death). Artemether and lumefantrine should not be used to prevent malaria.
