Interviewer instructions

Circle the codes corresponding to all medicines reported taken to prevent malaria during the pregnancy. If the respondent cannot remember the name of the medicine taken, ask her to show you the package it came in. If she doesn't have the package, show her typical antimalarials and ask if she took any of them. If she mentions that during an antenatal visit she was given three tablets to take all at the same time in order to prevent malaria, circle 'A' on the assumption that she took SP/Fansidar. If she took another medicine, write the name in the space provided in 'Other', and circle 'X'. If she doesn't know the name of the medicine she took to prevent malaria, circle 'Z'.
