Hi HETAL,
Thanks for ur reply.
My US dr has prescribed the anti-malarial tablets becas we told them we are going to India which they consider as a malaria zone. I am doubtful about giving the medicine in a young baby who is less than 1 year..Also i am worried abt mosquitoes in India..Is it a good idea to take it?? or can we risk not giving it to my son?? The issue is those medicines have to be given one week before the travel adn during the whole course of the travel .
Hetal replied. if your dr has recommended it,considering the malaria zone, then its advisable to follow your dr.. i mentioned before also, until its not recommended by your dr, dont give....do wat dr has tells you to do...

it depends on every dr about dosage..if your dr has told to take it before leaving for india, do that,,if not, follow his instructions accordingly...
if your dr has recommended it to your baby, i am sure he knows about the safety levels !
so good luck and dont risk nething when it comes to health of baby..prevention is always better than cure ! just make sure that the medication doesnt gives ne side effects mentioned in its prescription,,,or consult your dr as soon as you see ne change in your baby health.

happy journey.
