Health Risks When Travelling to Benin
Malaria Risk in Benin
Malaria is prevalent year-round throughout Benin.
High-risk areas: Antimalarial tablets such as atovaquone/proguanil, doxycycline, or mefloquine are usually advised.
Precautions: Wear long sleeves, use insect repellents, and sleep under a mosquito net to minimise mosquito bites.
If you develop a fever after visiting a malarious area, seek immediate medical attention, as malaria can manifest up to a year after exposure.
