Book your malaria prevention consultation
Do I need malaria prevention?
Malaria risk can vary within the same country. Your risk assessment considers the places you will visit, season, length and type of travel, accommodation, activities and relevant medical factors.
Our wider Travel Health Clinic can review malaria alongside vaccination and other destination-specific risks.
Malaria prevention medicines
Preventive medicines may be recommended for some itineraries. The appropriate option depends on current destination guidance and individual factors including medical history, current medicines, allergies and previous experience. Any medicine is supplied only where clinically appropriate following assessment.
Mosquito-bite prevention still matters
No malaria prevention medicine removes risk completely. Bite avoidance remains important. Measures can include an appropriate insect repellent, clothing that reduces exposed skin and suitable mosquito protection at your accommodation.
When should I seek advice?
Some preventive regimens need to begin before entering a malaria-risk area and continue for a period after leaving. Arrange advice before departure where possible. If you are travelling at short notice, still seek an assessment rather than assuming nothing can be done.
Read our Malaria Prevention for Travellers guide.
Fever during or after travel
Malaria can become serious quickly. If you develop fever or significant flu-like illness during or after travel to a malaria-risk area, seek urgent medical assessment and tell the healthcare professional where you have travelled.
