I am planning a family trip to a malaria high risk area. i have a 1year old and a 4 year old. what preventative medication can i get for the children?

Depends on Area: Studies show that malaria prophylaxis can be tailored to the exact country you are visiting. According to the CDC, Atovaquone/Proguanil can be used in all areas. You should realize that malaria is one of the most fatal infections a child can acquire and consider how wise it is to plan an unnecessary trip to expose your children to a potentially fatal illness. Is vacation really worth it? No
