I've been prescribed Mefloquine 250mg Tablets to prevent malaria for an upcoming trip. I've heard mixed reviews about the side effects and no one I know has ever taken this medication so I'm curious to know about other people's experiences. How did you find the side effects and did they go away? Did you notice any issues with long-term usage? I'm particularly worried about the severe side effects. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Chloroquine Phosphate 500mg Tablets have been a staple in the treatment and prevention of malaria for decades. This medication, which can also control certain autoimmune diseases, has a long history of use. However, recent concerns have been raised about its potential side effects, some of which are severe and require immediate medical attention. How have your experiences been with this medication? Have you or someone you know encountered any of the serious side effects? It can be helpful to share stories and learn from each other's experiences!

I was recently prescribed 500mg Aralen to help with my Lupus, and I'm not looking forward to the side effects. Has anyone had experience with this medication? I'm hoping to hear about any strange symptoms or experiences, as well as any positives, from people who have taken it. Thanks!
