    Great information! I always carry a medical kit when I travel. It includes medical supplies for headache, diarrhea, body pain and cold which my doctor prescribes.

    Apart from a medical kit make sure to have a proper insurance coverage also while travelling. VisitorsInsuranceReviews is the one I prefer.

    We always do! Even for local travels. Better to be ready at anytime, anywhere. This is a lesson learned for me, because when we went to HK, my husband got a very bad stomach pain and buying meds there is really an inconvenience considering the language barrier.

    Hi friends,
    I too definitely carry some medicines-Crocin,Histac, some pain killer, Volini,Lomotil, Avomine and also Vaseline. As long as we carry these, their need never arises. If we forget by any chance then the need arises!
    Regards,

    Yes I always take the first aid kit in my bag during travel as we do not know what will happen and for the immediate medication it is very much important

    Yes. I usually carry paracetamols, pain relievers, meds for cough and cold especially when traveling during winter and essential oils.

    Hi,
    Sorry no it mostly always gets stopped at airport security and causes a complication. Although it is of vital importance, I usually do not bother going through the trouble of taking it on cabin baggage. Although check-in is always an option, it never works out as we do not restock often.

    Is what I am doing wrong? How can I change for the better?
