How is malaria treated?
Treatment for malaria depends on several factors: the species of malaria causing infection, severity of infection, the age of the infected person, and the pattern of drug resistance to malaria treatment in the area where the infection was acquired. If identified early and treated appropriately, almost all malaria can be completely cured. However, even short delays in the diagnosis of malaria can make treatment more difficult and less successful.
