My son is in the Peace Corps in Africa, and they have to take Lariam. They were all told to be aware of those types of side effects, and many of his co-workers had severely troubling reactions, up to and including hallucinations and incredibly bizarre dreams.

My youngest has complained that he has horrible dreams if he takes Lariam in the evening instead of the morning.

I have taken it before and it is nasty stuff. I didn't have hallucinations, but it need make me violently ill.

"including hallucinations and incredibly bizarre dreams."

Sounds like they could sell it on the street in California.

Lariam, especially if taken over a long period of time can begin to wear on you. The dreams seem to keep you from resting properly. At least they did me. I finally decided to take my chances in exchange for blessed dreamless sleep. After all, how bad could it be?

You really don't want to know the answer to that one.
