The
Malaria Treatment for Infants
The newest intervention recommended by the World Health Organization (in March 2010) is intermittent preventive treatment in infancy with SP (SP-IPTi). Studies show that SP-IPTi can significantly reduce clinical malaria and anemia in the first year of life, as well as hospital admissions associated with malaria infection or for any cause. If IPTi is widely adopted and implemented in areas recommended by WHO (see below), it could prevent approximately 6 million cases of malaria and save tens of thousands of lives every year in Africa, the region of the world most affected by malaria.
