QUESTION:
What name brand medicine should you take if you are traveling to area where malaria is present?
ANSWER:
That depends on a few factors, such as where exactly you are going, whether you have had bad experiences with any malaria preventative drugs (prophylactics) in the past, and how much money you want to spend! Common brand names of malaria prophylactic drugs include Lariam (generic name mefloquine) and Malarone (a combination of atovaquone and proguanil). Doxycycline is also a popular antimalarial, which is often sold under its generic name.
