 The national guidelines for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria in Bangladesh currently recommend a standard dose of artemether-lumefantrine followed by a single dose of primaquine for P. falciparum malaria and a three day course of chloroquine followed by 14 days of primaquine for vivax malaria.Currently the national treatment guidelines do not include any testing for G6PD deficiency before treatment with primaquine. In order to guarantee safe and efficacious treatment for all patients diagnosed with uncomplicated malaria in Bangladesh, it is essential to monitor the effectiveness and safety of the recommended treatment guidelines. This trial therefore evaluates the local efficacy and safety of the current first line treatment and assesses the G6PD status of the enrolled patients.
