متن کاملErythema multiforme (Stevens-Johnson) precipitated by Fansidar.
The combination of pyrimethamine and suiphonamide is effective prophylaxis against Plasmo&dm falciparum malaria (Lucas et al., 1969) and is specifically recommended for use in areas where chloroquine-resistant malaria is encountered such as Kenya (British National Formulary, 1983). The sulphonamide component of Fansidar is sulfadoxine, and we believe it is this sulphonamide which precipitated t...
متن کاملPlasma concentrations of sulfadoxine in healthy and malaria infected Thai subjects.
The disposition of sulfadoxine was studied in the presence of pyrimethamine in 18 healthy Thai subjects who had been suffering from falciparum malaria in the 6 months prior to the study, and in 12 Thai patients with acute malaria. The volunteers were administered an oral dose of 500 mg sulfadoxine + 25 mg pyrimethamine (1 Fansidar tablet). They were classified retrospectively as responders (Gro...
متن کاملInduction of antimalaria immunity by pyrimethamine prophylaxis during exposure to sporozoites is curtailed by parasite resistance.
Each year, infections with the protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum kill 1 million people, mostly children in Africa. Intermittent preventive treatment (IPT) with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) reduces the incidence of malaria and aims to prevent mortality in infants, children, and pregnant women. There is contradictory evidence as to whether this strategy may generate additional protection...
