I remember taking malaria tables in preparation for a holiday trip to the tropics. I would have been 12 or 13 years of age and this would have been in mid 70s.

I remember taking malaria tables in preparation for a holiday trip to the tropics. I would have been 12 or 13 years of age and this would have been in mid 70s. As part of that same preparation I also had 2 jabs (I think for Yellow Fever and Cholera) and if I remember correctly I had to take one malaria tablet a day, for a period of two weeks prior to the start of the trip. I honestly don't remember any side effects from taking those malaria tablets, but I do remember the 2 days of numbing pain in my arm, which I assumed was caused by the two jabs.
