"Coartem is used to treat malaria, a disease caused by an anopheles mosquito. It works by interfering with the growth of parasites in the red blood cells. Do not use Coartem to prevent malaria but use it to treat it. Coartem really gave me a good recovery but not really the best as compared with Fansidar. It is only used to treat non severe malaria."

"Best for malaria in my opinion. I’ve had malaria 5 times now and found this the best. Tried other medications but the side effects and result don’t compare, well for me that is. On other meds I was sick for weeks not clearing the parasites out but with this three days are a rest day or two after and feel ok."
