How Artemet works

Artemet is a combination of two antiparasitic medicines: Artemether and Lumefantrine, which treats malaria. These medicines work by increasing the levels of haeme in the blood, a substance toxic to the malarial parasite. This kills the parasite and stops the infection from spreading.

Quick Tips

You have been prescribed Artemet for the treatment of acute uncomplicated malaria that is resistant to other antimalarial medications such as chloroquine.

Finish the prescribed course, even if you start to feel better. Stopping it early may make the infection come back and harder to treat.
