General comments
Behandeling malaria altijd in overleg met consulent tropen-infectieziekten.
Bij ernstige presentatie, behandelen als ernstige malaria tropica.
Indien chloroquine en artemether/umefantrine beiden niet direct beschikbaar zijn, volg dan therapie advies voor malaria tropica om eventueel ernstig beloop van P. knowlesi infectie te voorkomen. Alle antimalaria middelen zijn namelijk ook effectief tegen apenmalaria.
Chloroquine:
Artemether/ lumefantrine (Riamet ®, Co-artem ®):
Zwangerschap:
Meldingsplichtige ziekte groep C.
