I've done 12 safaris and on every one, I have taken Malarone, no issues. I leave in about 10 days and a person going with me said his doctor told him Malarone was less effective in Zimbabwe than prior. Dr. Recommended Doxycycline. First I've ever heard of this. Anyone else or are all using Malarone. Thanks for comments

Lately they are recommending doxi instead malarone...who knows real reason for that...
I can tell you doxi is a bit problemátic with sun...
If I were you I will continue with malarone but maybe wiser to follow doctor advice

Best regards

Used Malarone each trip to Africa - hunting and non-hunting plus India. I also take Doxy with me. I use hydroxychloroquine for South America.

If you plan on sitting in the back of the truck for long rides, stay away from Doxi! the sun sensitivity issue is real.

Still using Malarone... I'll be in Moyowosi in late September and plan on using it again. Need to update some shots though. Think my Yellow Fever is timed out.


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

When was your last YF? When I got my Stamaril when YF-Vax was temporarily out of production I was told it was good for life.

For many many years, we used the weekly one, cannot remember its name.

Supposed to have bad side effects as hallucinations etc.

Never had any of this, non of us, which in total must have been dozens of people.

After that our doctor recommended Malarone.

Again, we have been taking it for many years.

No side effects and it worked.

I think Malarone you take a couple of days before travel??
