JOURNAL ARTICLE
[Chloroquine neuromyopathies: 4 cases during antimalarial prevention].
Revue Neurologique 1986
Four cases of chloroquine neuropathy presented two points of particular interest: 1) these were all young women with strictly prophylactic doses of chloroquine (100 mg/24 h); two patients showed pronounced loss of weight; 2) signs of myogenic lesions were apparent in only one patient whereas clinical and electric signs of neurogenic involvement were observed in all 4 cases. Biopsy in 3 patients (muscle in one and muscle and nerve in two) failed to show characteristic vacuoles; in one case mild segmental demyelinization was present. A favorable course was obtained in all cases after discontinuation of chloroquine, with dramatic recovery from the motor deficit. Pharmacokinetic studies in 1 patient showed abnormally high chloroquine levels at initial assay with slow elimination after its discontinuation.
