Malarone

This medication is a tablet used to treat and prevent certain types of malaria (or an antimalarial drug). It contains the ingredients proguanil hydrochloride and atovaquone. Malaria is caused by plasmodium parasites, which are carried by mosquitoes and can be transferred to humans through mosquito bites. Once in the blood stream, these parasites multiply and the disease occurs when a sufficient number of blood cells have been infected. The agents contained in Malarone stop these parasites from multiplying and help the body to fight them off.
