​The Nigerian Senate has listed about 42 anti-malaria drugs that have been banned in Europe but are still sold in hospitals and pharmacies in Nigeria.

The lawmakers raised the alarm that all the forty two anti-malaria drugs were still being stockpiled, sold and consumed in the country.

Hence, the Senate has mandated its Committee on Health (Secondary and Tertiary), led by Senator Olarewaju Tejuoso, to urgently carry out a holistic investigation into the matter and report back for further action.

Raising the motion earlier, Senator T.A Orji, Abia Central said, “The Senate notes that recently the European Union banned the sale and consumption of 42 Anti-Malaria Drugs in all countries within the European Union.

“It notes that the 42 Anti-Malaria Drugs are: Alaxin 60mg tablet (dihydroartémisinine)B/8; Alaxin oral suspension (dihydroartémisinine) FL/80ml; Amodiaquine 200mg compressed B/1000; Amodiaquine 200mg compressed B/1000; Arinate 100mg tablet (artésunate) B/6; Arinate 50mg tablet (artésunate) B/6; Arsumax 50mg tablet (artésunate) B/12; Artemax 60mg tablet (dihydroartémisinine) B/8; Artémédine 40mg capsule (artemether) B/12; Artémédine 50mg tablet (artemether) B/12; and Artenam 50mg tablet (artemether) B/14.

“Also on the list are Artenam 60mg tablet (artemether) B/8; Artésiane 300mg child powder oral suspension (artemether) FL/38g; Artésunate 100mg compressed B/120; Artésunate 50mg tablet B/120; Artexin 60mg tablet (dihydroartémisinine) B/8; Camoquin 200mg tablet (amodiaquine) B/9; Camoquin 200mg tablet (amodiaquine) B/25 blisters.”

Others include: Camoquin 200mg tablet (amodiaquine) B/55 blisters; Camoquin 200mg tablet (amodiquine) B/24; Camoquin 600 mg tablet (amodiaquine) B/3; Camoquin oral suspension 50mg/ 5ml (amodiaquine) FL/60ml; Cotecxin oral suspension (dihydroartémisinine) FL/80ml; Cotecxin 60mg tablet (dihydroartémisinine) B/8; Daraprim tablet (pyriméthamine) B/30; and Falcinil 50mg tablet (artésunate) B/12.

Good question! Besides, the so called senate did not list the malaria drugs available for consumption in Nigeria.

The Ministry of Health or NAFDAC should be releasing this list Not the Senate,

Artesunate is everywhere now

Artesunate is a chemical composition contained in any ACT drug.The problem is not that but the brand or maker who has compromised the pharmacological standard of the drug.Put in another way,people calling Jesus in a church is not the issue but what is the foundation of d church.It is not every bread that is made of flour that is good.The problem is not the flour but the baker.

Did I just see Artesunate there?


I took that shît last week Friday.

Be calm bros,you are safe.The reason for the ban by WHO is to prevent development of resistance,when used as monotherapy and not because it's harmful,artesunate injection is recommended for treatment of severe malaria by the same WHO. It's also used orally for treatment of uncomplicated malaria when combined with other antimalarial drugs with long half life in the form of ACT. PEACE

Invite Ministry of health and NAFDAC then nominate some members of senate committee on health to work together to investigate and take proactive measure in stopping the said drugs...
Senate should stop acting like running a parallel Government with FG. .

But if you want to do your Ajayi work, take your time investigate the product names like Lonat, Amala etc and list them cause that is the language Nigerians will understand and personally deter from those drugs and not telling us clovergen2dimetrin, idiotmatrin syrup, rubbishcogen baby powder mtswww.
