TRAVELLING ABROAD?
DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE OVER 100 COUNTRIES KNOWN TO HAVE THE RISK OF MALARIA? WE CAN HELP TO KEEP YOU SAFE
Malaria is a tropical disease which is spread through infected mosquitos and the symptoms can appear at any time from within a week to a year after an initial bite. The infection can be fatal if left untreated.
Pregnant women, children, the elderly and those with a weakened immune system may develop complications if they contract malaria.
With over 100 countries known to have a risk of malaria, here at Honeycomb Pharmacy we can advise and supply you with the correct antimalarial for your travel destination. This is essential as the choice of anti-malarial is dependent on the travel destination and your medical history. You will always be informed when and how to take the medication and of any side effects you may experience.
It’s extremely important to note, that even if you're revisiting an area you’ve visited before, you should be aware that any malaria guidelines may have changed since your last trip, so always check with us first. You should also consider whether you may need any travel vaccinations before you set off.
