I am trying Malaron right now. What dosage is normal or what dosage has worked for you?

I understand that Mepron can be expensive and also can be covered by insurance. We are going to try Malaron first and see what happens.

Thanks.

I took 4 pills a day at 250/100mg each.

Take it with fatty foods.

Hugs,

I am taking 4 pills Malarone per day (250/100 mg). It took me several months to work up to that dosage.

It helps to take it on a full stomach to prevent nausea and with fats to aid with absorption.

When I took 6 per day, I had these little sore bumps in my mouth come out.

I only weigh about 102lbs so it probably was too much for me.
