| US FDA | — | Treatment of uncomplicated malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium malariae, Plasmodium ovale, and Plasmodium vivax in adult and pediatric patients. • Prophylaxis of malaria in geographic areas where chloroquine resistance is not reported in adult and pediatric patients. • Treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in adults. • Treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus in adults. • Treatment of chronic discoid lupus erythematosus in adults. • Limitations of Use • : SOVUNA is not recommended for the: Treatment of complicated malaria. Treatment of chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine-resistant strains of Plasmodium species. Treatment of malaria acquired in geographic areas where chloroquine resistance occurs or when the Plasmodium species has not been identified. Prophylaxis of malaria in geographic areas where chloroquine resistance occurs. Prevention of relapses of P. vivax or P. ovale because it is not active against the hypnozoite liver stage forms of these parasites. For radical cure of P. vivax and P. ovale infections, concomitant therapy with an 8-aminoquinoline drug is necessary. | approved | Jan 14, 2022 | openfda |
