The best protection from malaria in addition to malaria tablets is to keep mosquitoes at bay and prevent yourself getting bitten! Tropical countries provide ideal breeding grounds to mosquitos, increasing their number and leading to greater chances of contracting this disease. Malaria tablets can help prevent this to a great extent but is not 100% effective in providing resistance especially if bite prevention is not also thought about. Using proper bite preventive measures such as wearing full sleeve clothing, using mosquito repellents, sleeping nets and staying indoors whilst mosquitos are most active will all help further lower the risk in addition to malaria tablets.

There are several different types of malaria tablets and the one you take will depend on the region you are travelling to (due to resistance) as well as the age of the patient, past allergies, the physical condition of the patient and more. All antimalarial tablets need to be taken before travelling, which allows the user to see how they tolerate the medication prior to travel so it can be changed if necessary.It also helps build up a constant level of the drug in the body prior to travel, building up the bodies resistance.
