However, when it happens, we are unprepared and\u2026 we run and don\u2019t make it! Imagine, then, being abroad (or even in Greece) and needing the simplest thing late at night. A plaster or a painkiller. Then you will wish you had thought ahead and taken the absolute basics with you.<\/p>\n<p>The contents of the travel medicine cabinet always depend on the destination. Additionally, before traveling to specific countries, find out if you need to <a href=\"https:\/\/eody.gov.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/emvolia-ta3idioton.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vaccinated<\/a>The medications you take with you should be in their packaging and in an insulated box, which you can take with you on the plane in case your luggage gets lost. It is best to avoid medications in liquid form.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, according to the instructions of the National Public Health Organization, but also based on the experiences we have gained while traveling all these years, we recommend that you have the following with you:<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Painkillers - antipyretics (e.g. Panadol, Depon, Ponstan)<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Antihistamines for allergies, itching (e.g. Claritine, Xozal)<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Decongestants (e.g. Physiomer, Otrivin)<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Nausea medications \u2013 antiemetics<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Plaster, gauze, bandage, cotton,<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Mosquito repellents (in some countries, those with the ingredient deet are required)<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Antidiarrheals (e.g. Tasectan, Imodium)<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sunscreen \u2013 cream for burns<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Corticosteroid cream for skin diseases, bites, irritations (e.g. Celestoderm, Fusidin, Fenistil)<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Thermometer<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Eye drops \u2013 eye drops<\/p>\n<p>\u2705Antiseptic<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Antacids for the stomach (e.g. Maloox, Simeco)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other medications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In some countries (especially developing ones) special precautions are needed due to the climate and specific local conditions. So you may need to have <u>additional<\/u> with you:<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Antimalarials, medications to prevent altitude sickness symptoms, water sterilization tablets, antispasmodics, antibiotics, adrenaline.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, contact your personal doctor before traveling and stock up on sufficient quantities of medication for the duration of the trip. If you have a chronic illness, bring a medical note with you stating the illness and the medication to treat it (translated).
