Abstract (EN): Malaria is the most frequent infectious disease in the world. The knowledge we have about its epidemiology and pathogenesis clearly show prophylaxiss as the main protection procedure. The growing number of portuguese visitors to endemic regions and the spreading of resistances led to strategical changes. We intend, in a simple way, to point out prophylactical measures - regimens, their usess and limitations.
