The recommended dosage of dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine combination therapy may vary depending on various factors such as the patient's age, weight, medical history, and the severity of the malaria infection. Therefore, it is important to follow the specific dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider and not exceed the recommended dosage.

As a general guideline, dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine combination therapy is usually administered as a tablet taken once a day for three consecutive days. The typical dosage for adults is one tablet per day for three days. However, the dosage may be adjusted based on the patient's body weight, age, and other factors.

For children, the dosage of dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine combination therapy is based on their body weight. The recommended dose is usually calculated as 2.4mg/kg of dihydroartemisinin and 18mg/kg of piperaquine phosphate, taken once a day for three consecutive days.

It is important to complete the full course of treatment even if the symptoms of malaria improve or disappear. Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your healthcare provider.
