In this light, we discuss Soto and colleagues' report of primaquine prophylaxis against malaria (1).First, the importance of excluding G6PD deficiency before primaquine prophylaxis cannot be overstated. G6PD deficiency, originally described as “primaquine sensitivity,” is characterized by hemolysis that is clinically apparent 6 to 72 hours after exposure to oxidant drugs such as primaquine. African-American persons are commonly G6PD deficient, as demonstrated by Hockwald and colleagues (2), who administered primaquine, 30 mg/d, for 14 days ...References1.
