Planning a trip? Sort out your travel medicines before you go. We can prescribe malaria tablets, altitude sickness tablets and travel sickness treatment after a short online consultation with a UK prescriber, and send them by tracked delivery so they arrive in good time.
Order early. Malaria tablets usually need to be started before you travel (doxycycline 1–2 days before you arrive in a malaria area), so allow time for your consultation and delivery. Check the country you're visiting on the NaTHNaC TravelHealthPro website to see which risks apply. If you need vaccinations, book a travel clinic appointment 6–8 weeks before you leave.
