Drug treatments have been ranked in order of effect size and transmission-blocking efficacy. Treatments have been broadly divided into three groups: drugs with total (100%) effect size, drugs with a moderate effect size, and drugs with a low effect size. ATV, atovaquone; PQ, primaquine; A-L, artemether-lumefantrine; SD, sulfadiazine.
