What is Malaria?
Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by parasites which are transmitted through bites of infected female anopheles mosquitoes. there are 5 parasite species that cause malaria in humans, and 2 of these species p.falciparum and p.vivax pose the highest threat.
If you are planning to travel, speak to one of our pharmacists to establish if you require antimalarial drugs. the pharmacist will check the risk of malaria and also the type of activities you will be carrying out to decide if you will need anti-malarial drugs.
Main types of antimalarials
