I Purchased this product for a trip to Zimbabwe in August for myself, my husband, 14 year old daughter and 8 year old son. This was very easy to use, pleasant taste and my son had no problem with this as he would of if he had to take tablets instead. No side affects at all, none of us got any malaria bites either. I would strongly recommend this to anyone going to Africa, it’s much easier than taking tablets, and has a ten year life span, so we can use what’s left when we go again.
