ABSTRACT: Drug resistance in Plasmodium falciparum compromises the effectiveness of antimalarial therapy. This study aimed to evaluate the extent of drug resistance in parasites obtained from international travelers returning from Ghana to guide the management of malaria cases. Eighty-two clinical parasite isolates were obtained from patients returning from Ghana in 2016-2018, of which 29 were adapted to continuous in vitro culture. Their geometric mean IC50 values to a panel of 11 antimalarial drugs, assessed using the standard SYBR Green-I drug sensitivity assay, were 2.1, 3.8, 1.0, 2.7, 17.2, 4.6, 8.3, 8.3, 19.6, 55.1, and 11,555 nM for artemether, artesunate, dihydroartemisinin, lumefantrine, mefloquine, piperaquine, naphthoquine, pyronaridine, chloroquine, quinine, and
