Side Effects

The most common adverse effects are nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea, all of which are also characteristic of acute malaria. The main concern is the possible cardiotoxicity with lumefantrine and neurotoxicity with artemether. There is no real evidence in humans for either of these.

Precautions and Contraindications

There are limited data available regarding the safety of artemisinins in pregnancy and they are not recommended for use in pregnant women due to reports of foetal toxicity in animal studies.
