Dear
Mr. Bloggs
Thank
you for your enquiry regarding a Customised Medical List from
the Travel Doctor.
The list
of medicines below has been compiled and based on the information
that you supplied to us in the questionnaire. We strongly
recommend that you make a printed copy of this page NOW, to
keep for future reference.
The list
of recommended medicines is quite comprehensive and in some
instances you may consider the quantity recommended to be
excessive. We have based the quantities recommended on a worst
case scenario assuming that certain numbers in your group
will fall ill during your trip. You will be aware of many
more factors relating to your trip than we are, therefore
you can increase or decrease any of the quantities as you
consider appropriate.
Furthermore,
if you are travelling with an organised tour company or chartering
a liveaboard dive vessel, they may already have made arrangements
for medical requirements etc. You should check this out with
the relevant tour company or travel agent and modify the list
accordingly.
You will
see that we have listed certain medicines from several different
categories e.g. pain killers, antihistamines, antibiotics,
etc. but if you have used a particular medicine in the past
and would prefer to use it again rather than the one we have
suggested, please do so. As long as the medicine you choose
falls into the same category it makes no difference.
Please
note that some medicines such as those containing codeine
or similar compounds are not allowed to be taken into certain
countries. Please check with your travel agent or airline
etc. prior to departure.
The Travel
Doctor Manual has been specially written to aid you in
the use of these medicines. Please print off a copy and take
it with you on your trip, where it will prove very useful
should you need to use any of the medicines listed.
We
recommend that your party of 6 male(s) and 0 female(s) travelling
to India to take part in a Backpacking/Safari/Long Term trip
on 2nd Feb 2012 lasting 15 days should include the following
