This medicine is to give some degree of protection (prophylaxis) against malaria in certain countries. Some types of malaria require that you take more than one type of tablet, at the same time, to help prevent malaria. Malaria prophylaxis is recommended for non immune residents and travellers to malarious areas as these individuals have little or no immunity to malaria and risk severe attacks.
You should ask your doctor or pharmacist if these are the right anti-malarials for the part of the world you are visiting. If in doubt, phone or email us.

Two 'Avloclor' tablets should be taken once a week, on the same day each week.
Two 'Paludrine' tablets should be take daily.
