Short‐Course Low‐Dose Primaquine for Radical Cure in G6PD‐Normal Patients in the Pre‐Elimination Context of Nepal

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Plasmodium vivax remains a challenge for malaria elimination in Nepal due to its ability to relapse. Radical cure with primaquine is effective but limited by poor adherence to the standard 14‐day low‐dose regimen. In 2022, the WHO recommended administering the same total dose (3.5 mg/kg) over 7 days to improve adherence.
