Can I Rely On Malarone For Back Pain And Kidney Area Pain?
i started taking Malarone about 4 days ago, and now have lower back pain - around the kidney area...its so uncomfortable, i cant sleep. Althogh amongst common side effects listed is back pain, this feels more related to my kidneys than my back per se. Is it likely to be the Malarone. I am taking no other medication.
