we always take malerone with no side effects

It,s a matter of choice, the risk you take. I personally will not risk not taking them, better have a couple of side effects, if any than have full blown malaria. Speak to doctor what is best for you, as some people prefer to pay extra for malarone as find more suitable, for last 8 years I have taken a course of p and c, and never had side efforts. The only downside of them is how long you take them for, as need to still be taking four weeks on return.

Consult with your GP or practice nurse about what tablets to take, only they know your medical circumstances. Then by all means come on here to ask the cheapest place to buy what is advised.

Hey,

i would suggest that taking Malaria tablets with you depends upon the places you are going to visit.

there is a map for it... antimalariatablets.co.uk/malaria-tablets/…

Although the map is not correct completely...

I have traveled a lot with out them and never had any sort of problem.

Ahmdabad, nasik, kolkata, Pune, mumbai dont have this problem unless you visit some slum area.

Even goa is now out of it...

Moreover season of your travel also matters a lot, it is on peek at July-October

November afterwards there is not much of problem.

Moreover talking about side effects

I have been to my travel clinic today, had jabs, asked about malaria tablets, she said it is a personal decision, I am confused, going to goa in december, heard that vitaminB, helps stops the mossies biting, I currently take them. still not decided, she said they can make you feel really ill, shall I chance it, and take good protection with me.

No good asking people on here if you should chance it, not a vote, it, s your health. Only you can decide what to do, after consulting your doctor.
