Abstract
The effect of chloroquine on paracetamol kinetics and disposition was investigated in six healthy male Ghanaian volunteers. Chloroquine administration shortened the time taken to reach peak plasma paracetamol concentration (tmax) in five of the volunteers. Peak plasma paracetamol concentration (Cmax) was significantly increased by chloroquine administration. The area under the plasma paracetamol concentration-time curve was also significantly increased by chloroquine administration. There was, however, no effect of chloroquine on paracetamol metabolism.
