Navy Medical Department Guide to Malaria Prevention and Control

Appendix 5: Supplies and Training Aids

Department of the Navy
Bureau of Medicine and Surgery

Following is an extensive list of useful items available through the Federal Supply System for personal protection, chemoprophylaxis, and treatment of malaria. Special circumstances (i.e., new drug development, new patterns of drug resistant plasmodia, significant product improvement, items required due to unique deployment or geographical contingencies) may necessitate purchase of civilian products. The nearest Navy Environmental and Preventive Medicine Unit or Navy Disease Vector Ecology and Control Center are excellent and knowledgeable sources of advice regarding such situations.
