As a pharmacist by degree, I'm constantly planning and packing for the worst, especially when it comes to international travel. Sometimes you can easily find what you need in other countries, but other times those medications are not available or require a doctor's prescription. Sometimes it's just difficult to find a pharmacy. It's always best to plan ahead and bring some necessities. This downloadable list covers most of the medications I bring with me when I travel as well as some additional options. Not all recommendations are suitable for everyone, so always check with your doctor before taking a medication. The content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.
