Malaria Treatment in the Bush
Hi,
has anyone in this forum made personal experience with malaria?
I am wondering how Malarone, Lariam etc. work if taken (in a heavy dosis) as a cure instead of a precaution.
Has anyone in the forum ever taken a heavy dosis, without a doctor, while in the bush?
Some travellers say that there is good local treatments in Africa, even in remoter areas, to the extent that they don't take any precautions any more.
I will be in Congo, Cameroon and Gabon for several weeks and I really need to consider if I want to take Malarone over an extended period of time.
