Resumo

From 1966 to the last trimester of 1972 a sufonamide-antifolic association was used for the treatment of 104 cases of falciparum malária at the Department of Tropical Medicine of the Institue of Tropical Pathology of the Federal University of Goiás. Ali patients had been hospitalyzed and were submitted to a cure control of at least one month. From 1972 on, there was observed an increased resistance of falciparum infection to this drug association. In this study, the results obtained with 40 cases until September 1970 are compared with the results observed in 62 other cases from January 1971 to May 1972. During the 2nd period, a decrease in susceptibility of Plasmodium falciparum, namely, a slower response and an increased tendency to recurrences was observed, including inability to promote negativation in fíve cases. By using double dose schedules with both associations in a group of 20 patients, a precocious recrudescence of parasitemia occurred in 7 cases. It is concluded that Plasmodium falciparum is developing a resistance to the sufonamide-antifolic association in Goiás.
