Malaria continues to be a serious, world-wide infection. Atovaquone-proguanil is one of the prophylactic agents recommended for travelers to endemic regions. However, little information is available regarding adherence with this medication. A large proportion of malaria cases reported from travelers is due to non-adherence to prescribed regimens. This study was undertaken to analyze adherence with atovaquone-proguanil prophylaxis and specific factors contributing to non-adherence.
