Malaria Tablets / Post Travel

There are various types of malaria tablets and your travel health advisor will go through the different options that are available to you for your destination. 

​Anti-malaria tablets can cause side effects and some tablets are unsuitable for some people.  Your advisor will discuss both of these with you, so that they choose the best option for you when buying malaria tablets.  

Worried you have got malaria?
Malaria is a very common illness in many parts of the world, spread by mosquitoes that bite from dusk to dawn. It can be a serious and sometimes fatal illness if not acted upon quickly.
