We recommend checking the destination you are visiting on the TravelHealthPro website for advice

When you arrive, a trained clinician will carry out a short consultation to confirm the medication is suitable for you. They will ask about your medical history, allergies, and any current medications.

Once everything is confirmed, our team will provide you with medication and advice on how to take the tablets.
