What are Maloff Protect Tablets?
Maloff Protect Tablets are antimalarial medicines designed to help prevent malaria, a serious and sometimes life-threatening disease caused by parasites transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes. These tablets contain two active ingredients — Atovaquone (250mg) and Proguanil Hydrochloride (100mg) — which work together to stop the malaria parasite from developing in the blood. By targeting the parasite early, before it spreads throughout the body, Maloff Protect helps reduce the risk of becoming ill while travelling in areas where malaria is common. Maloff Protect is particularly useful for travellers heading to high-risk malaria regions, such as parts of Africa, Asia, Central and South America. Taking these tablets as prescribed ensures that you remain protected during your stay and even after returning home, since the malaria parasite can linger in the bloodstream for several days after exposure.
Who Can Take Maloff Protect Tablets?
Maloff Protect is suitable for adults aged 18 and over who are travelling to malaria-risk areas. It is available without a prescription for healthy adults, making it convenient for last-minute travel plans. However, not everyone can take these tablets safely.
- You should speak to a doctor or pharmacist before using Maloff Protect if you:
- Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or think you may be pregnant.
- Are under 18 years of age or weigh less than 40kg (unless prescribed by a doctor).
- Have kidney or liver disease.
- Have a history of epilepsy, convulsions, depression, or tuberculosis.
- Are taking other medicines such as tetracycline, rifampicin, certain HIV treatments, anticoagulants like warfarin, or medicines for cancer such as etoposide.
How to Take Maloff Protect
- Start taking the tablets 1–2 days before travelling to a malaria zone.
- Continue to take one tablet daily with food or a milky drink during your entire stay.
- After leaving the malaria area, carry on for 7 days to ensure any remaining parasites are killed.
- If you vomit within one hour of taking a dose, take another tablet as soon as possible.
Key Considerations
Maloff Protect may cause mild side effects such as headache, stomach pain, nausea, diarrhoea, or dizziness. Severe reactions are rare, but if you experience rash, allergic symptoms, or persistent vomiting/diarrhoea, seek medical advice promptly.
