Severe falciparum malaria, or infections complicated by a relatively high parasite count (more than 2% of red blood cells parasitized) should be treated with intravenous therapy until the patient is well enough to continue with oral treatment. There are now three main therapeutic options for the treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria in adults in the UK: artemisinin combination therapy (ACT), oral atovaquoneeproguanil or quinine plus doxycycline (or quinine plus clindamycin in certain circumstances) (see Box 4 for details of doses). 52 In line with the WHO guidelines, we recommend that IV artesunate should be used preferentially over quinine as the drug of choice for treatment of severe falciparum malaria in children (grade 1A).	./cache/cord-305583-p2jp5fiq.txt	./txt/cord-305583-p2jp5fiq.txt
