The first time we took Lion out of the country at 15 months old, he got sick within the first 24 hours. I tend to overpack, particularly when it comes to medicines and first aid supplies, and I was grateful to have all the supplies I did. Depending on the country, you might also find it very easy to find the the necessary medications, even if they’re typically not available over-the-counter in the United States. Here are some tips on what to do when you have a medical issue while traveling.
Key Takeaways:
- I highly recommend putting your mini-pharmacy into your carry-on bag
- I like to be even more prepared because of language barriers and uncertainties on how easy it will be to find what we need.
- It’s helpful to know in advance what your insurance will cover in the event that something serious happens.
