Cost Effectiveness of IPTc.

<p>Numbers in parenthesis are cost savings.</p><p>*This is based on the savings of averting treatment compared to the placebo (See <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0012223#pone-0012223-t003" target="_blank">Table 3</a>).</p><p>**Net costs are calculated by subtracting resource savings from intervention costs.</p><p>***Net costs effectiveness is calculated by dividing costs by the protective efficacy against clinical malaria.</p

Unit Costs of receiving IPTc (cost per child receiving at least the first dose of each course^*) (US$2008).

<p>*A dose reflects the act of the child taking each daily IPTc tablet (one day for SP and three days for AQ& AS), a course reflects the monthly taking of all doses of IPTc.</p><p>**The slight differences in training costs reflect the different number of children assigned to each trial arm.</p
