Abstract

From January 1996 to December 1998, artemisinin derivatives were prescribed to 108 children infected with Plasmodium falciparum. The therapeutic effect was evaluated. Only children with moderate or severe malaria were included. Group I (intravenous artesunate; n = 62): 50.8% with moderate malaria and 49.2% with severe malaria; 53.2% with mild parasitemia, 22.6% with moderate parasitemia and 24.2% with high parasitemia; Group II (intramuscular artemether [Paluter ]; n = 46): 67.4% with moderate malaria and 32.6% with severe malaria; 52.2% with mild parasitemia, 36.2% with moderate parasitemia and 15.2% with high parasitemia; clinical amelioration and clearance of parasitemia showed no statistical difference between the groups. All patients cleared the parasitemia at the seventh day of follow-up (D7). In order to avoid recrudescence, mefloquine or clindamycin was used.
