Cheapest place to buy malarone?

  • bots.com still the cheapest with a two week script £48pp, lloyds ere by far the most expensive at £74!
  • Also remember if looking to buy specifically on the high street to ask around best price. A lot of pharmacists have a bit of discretion on the price and can tweak it slightly, some don't though. Can't hurt to ask, independents tend to have more say than not

    Some in store Tesco pharmacies have it at a good price, we paid £2.00 per tablet. You need to call around. Get the GPO to check, as in some areas Doxy may not be effective as there has been a resistance built up to it.
  • drhelen, just checked online and i'm not sure where you're getting your prices, Boots.com has malarone at £2.10 per tablet and lloydspharmacy.com at £2.16 per tablet - this isn't as far apart as your suggested two week costs...

    bathsheba - stratford pharmacy seems now to be quoting £2.18.

    I guess you've got to keep your eye on these prices....
  • I spent hours looking for the cheapest as they do cost a fortune i was told Tesco and you get points oh yes i needed 46 tablets for two people for two weeks,£64.00 each prescription,£128.00 .The best place is TRAVELPHARM type it in google ,£101 .20p.free postage happy hols:j

    Where is everyone getting these cheap prices on boots online? Mine came up £40 for 18 tabs :confused:

    I'm trying to figure out what i'm doing wrong
  • I just placed an order at Boots online for 24 x 250mg + 100mg Malarone tabs and it was indeed £7.20. Now just have to post my prescription to the freepost address and Robert is my mother's brother! Fabulous
