Abbreviations: AZ: azithromycin; CQ: chloroquine; Artm: artemether; Art: artesunate; dihydroart: dihydroartemisinin; Q: quinine; CI: confidence interval; d: days

Symbols: *: PCR‐corrected; **: partially PCR‐corrected; §: study conducted in an area without malaria transmission (Bangkok). The AZ dose in the combination with artemisinin 300 mg was 500 mg at start, followed by 250 mg after 24 hours and 48 hours.
