Atovaquone/proguanil resistance in Africa: a case report.

Scandinavian journal of infectious diseases - 1 Jan 2003

Abstract excerpt

The Atovaquone/proguanil combination has quickly been established as an effective chemoprophylaxis for travellers to areas with chloroquineresistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria. We describe the molecular cause of the first reported case of primary Atovaquone/proguanil resistance observed in our...
