Malaria tablets

Going to be in INdia from 10th December for 3 weeks, flying into Delhi, travelling to Rajasthan and finishing in Kerala.

Can anyone advise if I need malaria tablets? If so which ones and how long bfore I go do I need to start taking?

Up to date on all other vacinations, not going to bother wtih Rabies jab though.

any advice would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Maz

Maz, this and what, as a woman, you should wear when you get there, are among the most hotly debated subjects on IM!

Do a search and you should find several threads that you will find interesting to read.

And then, it's up to you!
