Halofantrine is a 9-phenanthrene-methanol effective against multiresistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum. It is extremely effective and well-tolerated in treating cases of malaria imported into France. 1,500 mg in 3 doses at 8 hour intervals produced 100% cure rate in semi-immune patients. This dosage could be repeated after 14 days in order to obtain the same cure rate in non-immune patients. Side-effects are minor and include epigastric pain, nausea and one case of skin rash.
