Did most of you have an EKG before starting co-artem?
Nervous to take full dose tomorrow

No EKG before coartem for me.

I realize this post in a little old now, but I was just prescribed coartem yesterday. My LLMD made me have an EKG before he would give me the script. He said it's extremely rare, but it can cause a prolongation of the QT (heart rhythm) like Zithromax.
