Well gingernut, if these tablets work out at £0.20 each online, but £2.00 each from my GP, wouldn't you consider that's a bit extortionate?
Sorry mate, hate to be pedantic, and defensive on behalf of my workmates, but I'm interested to know, has your GP taken money off you?

Why are you calling him a rip off? (It's not rhetorical, I am interested)

Anyway, have a freebee.....consider tablets if travelling to the east/souh east border (Syria/Iraq), be more relaxed if travelling to tourist resorts ......consider non drug measures,(and deet or The Guardian equivalent, and report your travelling to your rip off doc (mention malaria parasite blood test) if feverish in the 3 months on return.

If you're buying your tabs online, souce them in the UK.
