malaria treatment

Fever-fighting medicine regimen

Malaria treatment refers to the medical interventions used to cure or manage malaria, a mosquito-borne disease caused by parasites.

Treatment typically involves antimalarial drugs like artemisinin-based combination therapies, chloroquine, or quinine, depending on the parasite species and drug resistance patterns: She responded well to malaria treatment after returning from West Africa.

Early treatment is critical to prevent severe complications.
