This service is recommended for anyone travelling to a high-risk malaria area. We recommend checking the destination you are visiting on the TravelHealthPro website for advice.

When you arrive, a trained clinician will carry out a short consultation to confirm the vaccine is suitable for you. They will ask about your medical history, allergies, and any current medications.

Once everything is confirmed, our team will provide you with medication and advice on how to take the tablets.

Our pharmacists can provide advice if you’re travelling to a high-risk area for malaria.

You can also protect yourself by: 

• Taking the antimalarial medicine you’re prescribed

• Using 50% DEET-based insect repellent on your skin

• Sleeping under mosquito nets treated with insecticide

• Wearing long-sleeved clothing and trousers to cover your arms and legs in the evening

• Dominican Republic and Haiti

Malaria can be fatal so it is important that it is treated quickly with antimalarial medicine.

Some people may require specialist care and treatment in a hospital.
