Travel Health
Everyone wants their travel experiences to be life-changing—in a good way. Before you leave on a trip, it’s important to plan ahead so that you can relax and enjoy yourself while away. Your Pharmasave pharmacist can provide advice about travel essentials to help you stay healthy and happy while away from home, including:
- Vaccination and medication recommendations to prevent and treat travel-related illness
- Providing personalized advice on how to travel with your medications and/or medical devices
- Ensuring you have enough prescription medication in case of unexpected travel delays
- Online access to prescription information with an eCare@Pharmasave account
- Recommendations for specific health concerns while travelling such as pregnancy, diabetes and heart disease
- Suggesting travel products and what to take in a first aid kit
- Providing advice about compression stockings for travelling for long periods
Travel vaccines vary by destination and some must be given 4 to 6 weeks before travel to be effective. Plan ahead and speak with your Pharmasave pharmacist about your upcoming travel needs.
