Malarone ---- Cost.
Doxycycline offers the same level of protection - much more cheaply!
1 x 100 mg tablet daily from 1 day before exposure to 4 weeks after.
Minor side effects:- increased sun sensitivity for 3% of users - work
around - sun screen.
Thrush for some female users - work around - clean COTTON underwear daily.
Ideally taken after eating - and do not lie down for 30 minutes after
taking.
TOO EASY!!!
Cost - cents per tablet almost anywhere in the world.
Available as a generic - vibramyacin is the most common branded doxy!

We are going to Kenya for a visit of sixteen days this month, Malarone was
recommended as the prophylactic to take, I was surprised at how
expensive it was, £63, I took the prescription to Superdrug chemists, what
are other people`s experiences of the price of this drug?
Thanks,
Pat.
