ABSTRACT
We conducted a 14-day study (during March-May 1998) to assess the efficacy of chloroquine and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) for treating uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Uganda. Overall treatment failure rates were 43 (81.1) of 53 chloroquine recipients and 16 (25.0) of 64 SP patients. Strategies to improve the life-span of standard and affordable anti-malarial drugs are needed
