reproduce asexually in the liver, before entry into the red blood cells
Tissue schizonticides
Destroy parasite in the red blood cells and can cure or prevent relapse of malaria
Blood schizonticides
Basis for selectivity of PABA inhibitors
Inability of bacteria to absorb folic acid

is cholesterol in humans and not ergosterol in fungi

into 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)
Flucytosine
Competitive inhibitors of dihydropteroate synthetase
Sulfonamides
Pharmacodynamically selective
Sulfonamides
Required for activity of sulfonamides
Proton on the sulfonamide nitrogen
Sulfonamides exhibit optimal activity when the pKa of the sulfonamide N hydrogen is between
6 and 8
The haptophore of sulfonamides minic PABA while the toxophile
competes with PABA for a binding site
For sulfonamides the haptophore is equal to the
toxophile
Sulfamethoxazole is used with
Trimethoprim because
They both have similar pattern of distribution and rate of elimination
Sulfamethoxazole with
Trimethoprim is marketed as
Co-trimoxazole
Drugs which inhibit the synthesis or utilization of folic acid are called
Antimetabolites
The most common predisposing factors to fungal growth in humans
Use of broad-spectrum
antibiotics
Upon biting the mosquito sporozites enter the body and infect the
Liver
Symptoms of malaria are present about every 48 hours due to
bursting of red blood cells
dormant parasites are called
hypnozoites
The depolarizing
neuromuscular blocking action of this drug overwhelms the worm’s nicotinic receptors and causes paralysis.
