This year’s World Malaria Day theme “Time to deliver zero malaria: invest, innovate, implement,” Orange Group Nigeria has promised to keep up its fight against the disease by spreading awareness and providing its innovative and cutting-edge anti-malaria medication and repellent cream.

Uchenna Ezenna-Gboneme, group media and communications director, said the company’s flagship products, Laris and Gardia, effectively prevent malaria infection and reduce transmission rates.

Ezenna-Gboneme said Laris, an anti-malaria medication, contains a combination of artemether and lumefantrine that has been proven highly effective in treating Malaria.

The drug which is available in tablet form, makes it easy to administer, even in remote areas with limited healthcare infrastructure, she said.
