How does malaria vaccine work to prevent malaria?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am worried about getting malaria on my upcoming trip to a country where it is very common. I heard there is a shot to prevent it, and I want to know more.

  1. Can you tell me about this malaria shot?
  2. How well it works, and if it has any harmful effects. Also, where can I get it?
  3. Can I just go to my regular clinic?
  4. Do I need to find a special travel clinic?

Your help means a lot for my trip plans.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The malaria vaccine is widely available in all countries. It is effective and efficient and covers 100 % protection against malaria.

No side effects have been reported so far. You can go to your regular clinic and take it. You can check out the country's local infectious hospital and take it. Please take the following anti-malaria and add them to the vaccine.

Tab Artemeter 100 mg twice a day.

Thank you.
