치료 징후:

Primaquine phosphate is indicated for the radical cure (prevention of relapse) of vivax malaria. Severe glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency (see WARNINGS). Pregnant women (see WARNINGS, Usage in Pregnancy). Primaquine phosphate is contraindicated in acutely ill patients suffering from systemic disease manifested by tendency to granulocytopenia, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematosus. The drug is also contraindicated in patients receiving concurrently other potentially hemolytic drugs or depressants of myeloid elements of the bone marrow. Because quinacrine hydrochloride appears to potentiate the toxicity of antimalarial compounds which are structurally related to primaquine, the use of quinacrine in patients receiving primaquine is contraindicated. Similarly, Primaquine should not be administered to patients who have received quinacrine recently, as toxicity is increased.

tissue
(exoerythrocytic) infection. Thereby, it prevents the development of

falciparum._

Primaquine phosphate is contraindicated in acutely ill patients
suffering from systemic
disease manifested by tendency to granulocytopenia, such as rheumatoid
arthritis and
lupus erythematosus. The drug is also contraindicated in patients
receiving concurrently
other potentially hemolytic drugs or depressants of myeloid elements
of the bone
marrow.
Because quinacrine hydrochloride appears to potentiate the toxicity of
antimalarial
compounds which are structurally related to primaquine, the use of
quinacrine in
patients receiving primaquine is contraindicated. Similarly,
Primaquine should not be
administered to patients who have
