Malaria’s history of drug resistance. resistance against malaria drugs has been a battle since day one. soon after chloroquine’s international release in the late 1940s, parasites began to fight back, particularly in colombia, thailand, and cambodia, 2 which were subjected to mass chloroquine treatments, often at low doses that promoted the evolution of resistant parasites. Key points. one of the biggest past and present threats to controlling malaria in endemic countries is drug resistance. recent emergence of partial artemisinin resistance in multiple sites across the globe threatens the future of artemisinin based combination therapy, the current first line treatment for p. falciparum in most endemic countries. Medicines for malaria venture (mmv) commends the draft decision on accelerating national and global responses to amr. we would like to highlight, however, the need to also address the growing threat of antimalarial drug resistance, including in africa, in line with the who strategy issued in 2022.

Artemisinin based combination therapies (acts) are the first line treatment for malaria and there is no immediate replacement available. the loss of acts will put millions of africans, mostly children under the age of 5, at risk of drug resistant malaria infection and death. one possible solution? adding a third drug to current act drug. The parasite that causes malaria has evolved to evade many of the drugs that researchers have developed to fight the tropical disease. infographic: viruses on the brain pathogens can take various routes to pass the blood brain barrier and damage cells.
