}}Artesunate/pyronaridine, sold under the brand name Pyramax, is a fixed dose combination medication for the treatment of malaria.[4][1] It can be used for malaria of both the P. falciparum and P. vivax types.[1] It combines artesunate and pyronaridine.[4] It is taken by mouth.[1]

The combination is generally well tolerated.[1] Side effects may include headache, vomiting, or cough.[1] Use in those with severe liver disease or kidney disease is not recommended.[1] Use is not generally recommended in early pregnancy.[1] However, there are no other options and if treatment may save the mother's life it may be used.[1] The two components work by different mechanisms.[1]

It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, the most effective and safe medicines needed in a health system.[2] In 2010 the wholesale cost of a course of treatment in the developing world was between 0.55 and 2.18 USD.[3]

Medical uses

Artesunate/pyronaridine is used for malaria of both the P. falciparum and P. vivax types.[3] It is not recommended for severe disease.[1]

A 2014 review found that the combination compared well to artemether/lumefantrine.[4]{{Update inline|reason=Updated version https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30620055|date = March 2019}} Benefits also appear similar to mefloquine together with artesunate.[4] It is not recommended for the prevention of malaria.[1]
