I work in construction site and it is full of mosquitoes. Is taking loroquin-500 once a week good for the pre prevention of malaria or I should take other precautions?

Dear lybrateuser, - Yes, you can take loroquin 500 mg once a week as preventive dose - also apply mosquito repellant gel/ cream on exposed parts of body, wear trousers & full sleeve shirt to prevent bite.
