It's explained:
Typical errors
We don’t use suggest + indirect object + to-infinitive when we suggest an action to someone:
He suggested that I should apply for a job in a bank or insurance company.
Not: He suggested me to apply …
We don’t use suggest + to-infinitive:
Henry wanted to tell everyone, but Dora suggested waiting until the news had been announced officially.
Not: Dora suggested to wait …

You can use it without "to". For example you can say "I suggest you go home" or "he suggested (that) we work harder". With "to" it's incorrect.
I hope that helps.

Nope, it's not correct. The correct form would be:
Suggest that you + verb without to
I suggest that you take prevents measures.
I suggest that she come (without "s") home soon.
