The study was carried out in 12 children aged 6 months to 2 years, with uncomplicated falciparum malaria admitted to the Hospital for Tropical Diseases, Bangkok. They were treated with mefloquine in the form of MSP (mefloquine 250 mg+sulfadoxine 500 mg+pyrimethamine 25 mg) at a single dose of 25 mg mefloquine base/kg body weight. All of them were cured (28 days follow-up) with minimal side effects. Pharmacokinetic parameter determination was carried out in 9 cases. The results revealed that MRT, t1/2 and tmax in this study (children 6-24 months old) are comparable to the values in children aged 5-12 years, but shorter than in adult patients. Cmax and AUC in children 6-24 months old are comparable to those in children of 5-12 years, but much higher than in adult patients. Vz/f values in this study are comparable to those in children 5-12 years old, but lower than in adult patients.
该研究在12名年龄在6个月至2岁之间、患有无并发症恶性疟原虫疟疾的儿童中进行,这些儿童被收治于曼谷热带病医院。他们接受了以MSP(甲氟喹250毫克+周效磺胺500毫克+乙胺嘧啶25毫克)形式的甲氟喹治疗,甲氟喹碱基的单剂量为25毫克/千克体重。所有患儿均治愈(随访28天),且副作用极小。对9例患儿进行了药代动力学参数测定。结果显示,本研究中(6至24个月大的儿童)的平均驻留时间(MRT)、半衰期(t1/2)和达峰时间(tmax)与5至12岁儿童的值相当,但短于成年患者。6至24个月大儿童的血药峰浓度(Cmax)和药时曲线下面积(AUC)与5至12岁儿童相当,但远高于成年患者。本研究中的表观分布容积(Vz/f)值与5至12岁儿童相当,但低于成年患者。
