    Hi,

    we are thinking of moving to SA (limpopo) for and extended period my question is does anyone have any advise/experience in malaria medication for infants ( my little girl is 5 months old and my wife and i are trying for a second so she may be pregnant while we are over there

    thanks in advance

    Use mosquito nets, mosquitoe repellant etc. and don't get bit!

    There's been a bit of a question mark about the wisdom of taking anti-malaria medication as a preventative measure...
    That's not advice, just an observation.

      Would it be good for the infant to be on medication all the time? Once here, the locals may be able to give you more advice. Good advice already given by Dave.
