---|---|---|
Arm/Group Description | The participants received 1000 mg Azithromycin (AZ) and 620 mg of Chloroquine (CQ) base (4 combination tablets of AZCQ with individual strength of 250 mg/155 mg), by mouth once daily for 3 days (Days 0, 1, 2) per treatment. There were a total of 3 treatments at 4-8 week intervals. | The participants received sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) (Fansidar) treatment course: 1500 mg sulfadoxine and 75 mg pyrimethamine (3 fixed tablets of SP strength at 500 mg/25 mg), single oral dose on Day 0 of each treatment.

Adverse Events
Time Frame | Up to Visit 7 (6 months post last dose). Includes data up to 35 days after last dose of study drug for mothers (treatment emergent), and includes all data for neonates. | |||||||

Adverse Event Reporting Description | The same event may appear as both an AE and a SAE. However, what is presented are distinct events. Some events are seen only in neonates (e.g neonatal malformation/anomalies, LBW etc.) and are not expected in mothers and vice versa. Such events are designated as 'zero' in the respective 'familial status- neonate/mother' in the below table. | |||||||
