Lariam Product Description
Drug Uses
Lariam is an antimalarial drug, used in treatment and prophylaxis of malaria. Lariam destroys erythrocyte forms of human malarial parasites like Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium malariae, and Plasmodium ovale.
Besides, Lariam is effective in cases when malarial parasites are resistant to other antimalarials (such as chloroquine, and pyrimethamine). Lariam is prescribed to children aged above 6 months, adults and elderly patients for:
- prevention of malaria
- treatment of acute malaria infections
A single Lariam dose of 1.250 mg per day is indicated for treatment of mild to moderate malaria in adults (5 250mg tablets of Lariam). To prevent malaria, the adult patients are advised to take one 250 mg tablet of Lariam once weekly. For treatment of malaria infections in pediatric patients, Lariam dose is calculated according to body weight. Usually, it is 20 to 25 mg per kg of body weight per day.
Missed Dose
If you’ve accidentally failed to comply with the malaria therapy course, and forgotten to take a dose of Lariam in time, just take the tablet as soon as possible. But if it is nearly time for the next dose of the antimalarial agent, do not take extra Lariam pill to make up for the missed dose.
More Information
For prophylaxis, application of Lariam should be started one week before travel to endemic malaria countries. To reduce the risk of malaria after leaving an endemic aria, the prophylaxis is recommended to be continued for 4 weeks more.
To achieve the therapeutic efficacy of Lariam antimalarial drug and to reduce the risk of side effects, the patients are recommended to take the prescribed dose of Lariam at the same time with a meal. If the patient’s state is not improved within 2-3 days, Lariam antimalarial drug should be replaced with another antimalarial drug.

Store the tablets of Lariam out of reach of children at room temperature not exceeding 30°C.
