Nursing mothers traveling to malaria-prevalent regions should adhere to the standard recommended dosage of antimalarial medications appropriate for the country they are visiting. For a list of specific antimalarial drugs, see CDC’s Yellow Book Chapter 4: Malaria, Table 4–9. The breastfeeding child needs his or her own antimalarial drug.
