Before visiting the doctor

travel medicine - before your visit
Before visiting a travel doctor, information should be prepared to optimally prepare the traveler in terms of health for the trip:
  • The exact route of travel,
  • The date and nature of the trip (vacation, work, research),
  • Planned elements of active tourism (high-altitude tours, scuba diving, cave visits, animal hunting),
  • Age of the traveler (this is especially true for children),
  • Recent illnesses and any chronic conditions,
  • A list of medications taken on a regular basis,
  • Previous immunizations (bring the vaccination booklet),
  • Antimalarial drugs used in the past,
  • Allergies to drugs, egg white (an ingredient in many vaccines) or other substances,
  • Pregnancy or planned breastfeeding while traveling,
  • Immune disorders in the traveler - related to chronic diseases or the use of medications,
