"Falciform" injection malaria

If you mean Falcigo injection (artesunate) for severe malaria:
  • Adults and children ≥20 kg: 2.4 mg/kg per dose
  • Children <20 kg: 3 mg/kg per dose
It is usually given at 0, 12, and 24 hours, then once daily until oral antimalarial treatment can be taken, followed by a full oral ACT course. This must be prescribed and administered in hospital because severe malaria is an emergency. WHO-based dosing table
Please confirm the exact name on the vial, because “Falciform” may be a different brand or a spelling variation.
