Malaria is a reportable
disease in the United States and its territories. Health-care
providers should report all cases of laboratory-confirmed malaria
occurring in the United States and its territories to their
local or state health department. Reports are transmitted to CDC through
the National
Malaria Surveillance System (NMSS). Surveillance forms may
be sent to CDC's Malaria Branch either by mail (at the address
at the top of the form) or by fax (at 770-488-4206).
To report an adverse event to an antimalarial drug
If your patient has experienced an adverse event while taking an antimalarial drug, you can report that side effect to MedWatch, the FDA Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program. Reporting an event is voluntary. However, your participation is encouraged in order to keep safe and effective drugs and devices available on the market.
To submit your voluntary report, do one of the following:
- Complete the voluntary form 3500 online at www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/medwatch/ *
- Call 1-800-FDA-1088 to report by telephone
- Download a copy of the form and either fax it to 1-800-FDA-0178 or mail it using the postage-paid addressed form.
