Abstract
Introduction There is a continuing need for improved drugs for treatment and prevention of malaria. Drugs with causal prophylactic activity are especially useful for prevention of malaria in individuals with a limited duration of exposure in a malaria-endemic area. In this paper I compare the requirements for causal prophylaxis of relapsing and non-relapsing malarias and review some of the challenges to the development of new prophylactic antimalarial drugs.
