Pharmacokinetics and allometric scaling of antimalarial drugs

Allometric scaling was found as a plausible technique for dose determination in children. Permeability and P-glycoprotein efflux transport of antimalarials were determined using in-vitro Caco-2 cells. Mefloquine showed P-glycoprotein inhibition. Amodiaquine, artesunate and artemisone were not P-glyc...
