Best advice is....prevention.......use nets and reppellents, long sleeves and trousers after sunset. First sign of symtoms, flu like..usually 10-14 days after being bitten, get medical attention..ASAP...don`t think it will go away...it won`t.
Pills do not prevent malaria....Larium is not approved for pilots...

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt
