Anti-malarial Prophylaxis


A couple of days ago, a parent enquired about the cost of Anti-malarial drugs.

I was led to believe that the cost for one type of drug was in the region of £70 for a course of treatment. I am now to understand that BOOTS charge £60 to fill the prescription for this drug.

I will endeavour to find which drug/anti-malarial this student is taking.

In addition I have found the following website, which, if you're interested, explains the whole thing about Malaria, including the Prevention and Treatment of Malaria....


I strongly recommend that all parents/guardians read this article.
