Atovaquone with Proguanil online UK

Atovaquone/Proguanil (Malarone and Maloff): A Powerful Combination treatment for Malaria Prevention.

Atovaquone/Proguanil (Brands: Maloff and Malarone tablets) is a combination of two drugs with different mechanisms of action, containing 250mg atovaquone and 100mg proguanil.

Atovaquone interferes with the mitochondria of the malaria parasite, while
proguanil inhibits the parasite's ability to replicate its DNA.

It is less likely to encounter resistance from the malaria parasite compared to other medications like doxycycline, mefloquine, and chloroquine.

This effectiveness makes it a reliable choice for both preventing and treating malaria.

Taking the pills:
