Seizures associated with chloroquine therapy
1Department of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria.
Abstract:
Three cases of tonic-clonic seizures following therapeutic doses of chloroquine for malaria are presented. A casual relationship between seizures and chloroquine therapy is suggested. There have been no previous reports of this adverse effect of chloroquine therapy in patients normally resident in a holoendemic area for malaria.
