Can I buy Malarone malaria tablets in Delhi?

Does anyone know if there's a reputable chemist or pharmacy in Delhi that sells Malarone and roughly how much it costs? Many thanks in advance.

no Malarone

I was in Delhi last fall on business and my trip got extended, so I needed more Malarone. I called a few pharmacies and the hotel doctor and the US Embassy medical center, and was told that Malarone is not sold in Delhi. I had to have someone from the US who was travelling over bring me some. They did have alternate varieties of malaria pills, that you take weekly, etc, but not that particular brand.

Malarone is not available for purchase in India. You can buy doxycycline instead which is what I use when I am in India.
