Malaria Consortium Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention Programme Start Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (smc) is a highly effective, community based intervention to prevent malaria in those most vulnerable to the disease's effects. it involves administering monthly courses of antimalarial medicines to children aged 3 59 months during peak malaria transmission season. learn more. In 2023, 53 million children were protected by seasonal malaria chemoprevention (smc) in 18 countries. 1. chemoprevention has proven to be efficacious and cost effective, particularly in children, who are at the greatest risk of dying from malaria. given the large scale deployment, mmv supports optimal implementation of smc through multiple. Updated recommendation: seasonal malaria chemoprevention (smc) in some areas, malaria is highly seasonal, with most cases occurring over a short period during the rainy season. smc is designed to protect children by clearing existing infections and preventing malaria infections during the season of greatest risk. Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (smc) is a relatively new tool for the prevention of malaria in areas with seasonal transmission. smc consists of monthly administration of a full therapeutic course of the antimalarials sulphadoxine–pyrimethamine (sp) and amodiaquine (aq) during the peak malaria season, and has been shown to provide a high.

Background seasonal malaria chemoprevention (smc) is a highly effective intervention for preventing malaria, particularly in areas with highly seasonal transmission. monitoring and evaluating (m&e) smc programmes are complex due to the scale, time sensitive delivery of the programme, and influence of external factors. this paper describes the process followed to develop a comprehensive m&e. Français. who published today in the consolidated guidelines for malaria a package of new and updated recommendations across a number of technical areas – from malaria chemoprevention and mass drug administration to elimination. the guidelines encourage countries to tailor the recommendations to local disease settings for maximum impact.
