...also known as Mefloquine is the type of anti malaria pills that I need to take for my upcoming trip to India. So I was reading through the patient information sheet and it is like those commercials you see on tv for drugs that say side effects may include and they go on and on. Here are some of the possible side effects
-Severe anxiety
-Feelings that people are against them
-Hallucinations(ex. seeing or hearing things that aren't there)
-Depression
-Unusual Behavior
-Feeling Disoriented
-"Some patients taking 'Lariam' think about killing themselves, and there have been rare reports of suicides. It is not known whether 'Lariam' was responsible for these suicides."
Yeah kind of crazy I would hope that if they were responsible for the suicides then they would stop selling the pills.
People have also said that I will most likely experience crazy dreams keep checking the blog because if I have a crazy one I will share it with you. Maybe.
Anyways I should go hopefully any side effects I get will be minimal.

I like how you explained what hallucinations are. I took the Lariam... no side effects from our whole team. Also sever anxiety... does this mean you would like to sever something... perhaps that explains the high suicide rate...
Lucky! All I got to take was non-hallucinagetic Chloroquine... and by take, I mean that I have an almost full bottle in my medicine cabinet.
hey natasha i fixed the spelling and i was writing right from the sheet that's why i had the example
Catherine,
Have a great time in India, we will be thinking and praying for you! Also, I hope you had a great Christmas!
