You should refuse from strong drugs, especially drugs. Exceptions are medications you take regularly according to the specialist`s prescription. In this case, you need to take with you the prescription signed and sealed.

Antibiotics are drugs taken only as directed by a specialist. People are not recommended take them at will, as it is pointless.

Some tourists visiting Africa and Asia, take care of taking antimalarials with them. However, we do not recommend doing this - the fact is that malaria is a very dangerous disease, so it is pretty challenging to treat independently. In addition, local medicines are often more effective than domestic ones - when malaria symptoms occur, consult a doctor, and he/she will prescribe you an appropriate treatment regimen.
