On a related note, may I suggest you pack with you, your own medication if you're heading into Sabang. The pharmacy there is only opened during the day and carries a limited stock. I had to resort to this when I couldn't find any Robitussin for my dry cough:

And what medication did you use the next morning? :D
 
I thought everyone knew it was gin & tonics for malaria meds!

Jaegermeister, pffttt.
 
This is shot at the 50 Bar at Atlantis, yes? If so, try a new drink from Ton Ton, called fittingly enough, the Ton-Tonic...if that doesn't kill you, the malaria won't....
 
I knew Ton was holding out on me. Had caught him lurking at the lab when I was there, probably concocting some nice love potions for the more healthy customers.

No additional meds for the adults required. I suggest you bring the strongest over the counter rub on mosquito repellant for the children. The issue is of malaria in the Philippines is way over-stated. Asia, in general, gets a bad rap. Keep the children clean and coated in bug spray when necessary and you are good to go.
