Yes it's normal to give you lots of protection, and I did the same but didn't finish the course when I get back from Phils.

Malaria I think its everywhere in Phils DOn't worry about side effects it's for your own protection is the main important... but if still in doubt the best thing to do is talk to your GP about your concern DOn't suffer in silence
