Malaria pills?


We will be travelling to Punta Cana at the end of the month. When we went in for our shots we were told we should be taking malaria pills and given a perscription. We have a large group of people going and some of them went to other clinics where they were not told about malaria pills. I'm just wondering get the pills or not??

Yes, get the pills!
My friend and I went to Kenya for two months. I took the pills (which gave me horrible nightmares many nights, the doctors for warned us about them) because of these "realistic dreams", he decided to stop taking them. When we got back to the States, we found out he had caught malaria and now suffers from very serious side effects for the rest of his life.
