Lonart DS (Double Strength) is a highly effective Artemisinin-based Combination Therapy (ACT). It is a premium antimalarial treatment that combines two powerful agents to provide a rapid and complete cure for malaria. The "DS" formulation is specifically designed for convenience, providing a higher concentration of active ingredients in each tablet so that adults only need to take one tablet per dose instead of four.
This product is primarily indicated for the treatment of acute, uncomplicated malaria. It is used for:
Total Parasite Clearance: Eliminating all stages of the Plasmodium falciparum parasite from the blood.
Rapid Fever Reduction: Quickly bringing down the high temperatures and "chills" associated with a malaria attack.
Prevention of Recurrence: Ensuring the infection does not return shortly after treatment.
Artemether (80mg): The fast-acting component that begins killing parasites immediately, providing quick relief from symptoms.
Lumefantrine (480mg): The long-acting component that stays in the system for several days to ensure every remaining parasite is cleared.
Standard Course: A 3-day treatment consisting of 6 doses in total.
Day 1: Take the first tablet immediately, followed by the second tablet exactly 8 hours later.
Day 2: Take one tablet in the morning and one tablet in the evening (12 hours apart).
Day 3: Take one tablet in the morning and the final tablet in the evening (12 hours apart).
Strict Adherence: You must finish all 6 tablets in the pack to ensure a total cure and prevent the malaria from coming back.
With Fatty Food: Lonart DS must be taken with a meal containing fat (such as milk, eggs, or a meal with oil/butter). Fat is essential for the body to absorb the Lumefantrine correctly.
Vomiting: If you vomit within 30 minutes of taking the tablet, you must repeat the dose.
Swallow Whole: Take the tablet with a full glass of water.
Not for Prevention: Lonart DS is a curative treatment for active malaria; it is not meant to be taken as a daily or weekly preventive pill.
Severe Malaria: If the patient is unable to swallow, is constantly vomiting, or is excessively drowsy, seek immediate hospital care for injectable treatment.
Pregnancy: It is generally avoided in the first trimester unless prescribed by a doctor; it is considered safe for use in the second and third trimesters.
Heart Conditions: Inform our pharmacist if you have any history of irregular heartbeats.
Indicated For: Adults and adolescents weighing 35kg and above.
Convenience: Perfect for those who find it difficult to swallow multiple tablets at once, as it reduces the pill burden to just one tablet per dose.
Q: Can I take Lonart DS with Paracetamol?
A: Yes. It is safe and recommended to take Paracetamol to help manage the fever and headaches while the Lonart DS clears the infection.
Q: Why do I need to take the second dose after 8 hours?
A: This "loading dose" schedule is scientifically designed to get the medicine to a high enough level in your blood quickly to stop the parasites from multiplying.
Q: Can I drink alcohol during the treatment?
A: It is best to avoid alcohol until you have finished the 3-day course and are fully recovered, as alcohol can worsen dizziness and dehydration.
