Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: It is not the cycle of the Plasmodium that dictates drug choice.
Rationale 2: There is a relationship between the cycle of the Plasmodium and the treatment of malaria.
Rationale 3: There are not different types of malaria based on the Plasmodium type.
Rationale 4: Pharmacotherapy of malaria attempts to interrupt the complex life cycle of Plasmodium.
Global Rationale: Pharmacotherapy of malaria attempts to interrupt the complex life cycle of Plasmodium. There is a relationship between the cycle of the Plasmodium and the treatment of malaria but the drug choice is based on the cycle of the disease, not the organism. There are not different types of malaria based on the Plasmodium type.
