Avloclor 250mg Tablets Pack of 20

Avloclor contains a medicine called chloroquine phosphate. This belongs to a group of medicines called antimalarials.

Anti-malarials can be taken in certain parts of the world to help prevent malaria. This is a serious disease spread by infected mosquitoes. Avloclor will give some degree of protection (prophylaxis) against malaria in certain countries.

Medicines to help prevent malaria (malaria prophylaxis) are recommended for:

• People travelling to countries where malaria occurs.
• People living in malaria areas who are not immune to malaria.

These people have little or no immunity to malaria, so they are at risk of severe attacks.
