What side effects have people suffered from taking mefloquine?


Travel Info
I have to take malarial prophylaxis for a 2 1/2 month trip to Peru. I have three choices of malarial prophylaxis. Malarone (way too expensive for me), doxycycline and mefloquine. My doctor recomends mefloquine as doxycyclin give a rash in the sun and he doesn't reccomend it for Peru.

So what I want to know is has anyone taken mefloquine? and what side effects have you had from it?

I have read to British National Formulary and have read all the possible side effects so I do not need a list. Just what people have actually suffered.

Thanks

unless u r going to be in the jungle, u really don't need mefloquine in Peru.
but if u really wanna take malaria medication take a pill with u to take as soon as u feel the symptoms.
i dont have the name with me right now, but if u contact me i麓ll tell u.
i went to kenya last april and did a whole research about malaria.
another good option is mosquito repellent..

must be a new drug
