Travel Overseas and Medications Abroad
Safe Travel
Travel for business or pleasure should be safe.
General Safety
Please make sure you check the safety of your area before you leave the UK. The government web site contains both health risk and safety risk information.
Sexual safety
Sexual activity overseas does carry risks and we advise being careful with new partners.
Vaccinations and communicable diseases
Communicable diseases are common in some parts of the world. Our nurses offer full travel advice. Regularly updated vaccination guidance is readily available.
Authorisation
Taking your medication abroad may require you to take a letter of authorisation with you, even in Europe. Every country has its own rules and it can be complex. Make sure you check in good time.
