Antibiotics for travel
Travellers' diarrhoea is one of the most common problems experienced when visiting a new country and affects over 50% of all people who spend two weeks or more in developing parts of the world. When we travel to other countries our risk of illness increases, as we have no natural immunity to our new surroundings. A change in diet, water, hygiene standards and even temperature can leave us more vulnerable to illnesses such as traveller�s diarrhoea. Other common travel problems include ear, eye, urine and skin infections.
