摘要

Chloroquine Is Born Again Chloroquine - which is far cheaper than more modern malaria drugs - was hugely successful in combating the disease when launched in the 1950s – it works by blocking the way the parasite breaks down human haemoglobin contained in red blood cells. But the malaria parasite gradually became resistant to Chloroquine. The resistant forms of the parasite neutralise the drug by developing a mechanism that drains chloroquine away from the key area, preventing it from reaching the necessary concentration. Researchers have found combining the chloroquine with another preparation, Primaquine, seems to restore its effect. Combination of chloroquine with chlorpheniramine proved effective in treating children and pregnant women with chloroquine-resistant infections.
