ABSTRACT
Humoral immune response of normal rhesus monkeys was studied after giving a standard dose of primaquine. The drug did not effect the level of complement (C3) and its haemolytic activity. Levels of Immunoglobulin i.e. IgG, IgM & IgA and number of immunoglobulin secreting cells also remained unaffected. Results of this study suggested that primaquine did not suppress the immune status of the host and could be given safely to the malaria patients.
