Medically, what do I need to do?
Illness is not uncommon while traveling to a foreign country so it’s always best to be prepared medically. If immunizations are required, be sure to schedule an appointment with your physician or a travel health clinic at least 6 to 8 weeks before your departure.

How soon before I leave should I go to the doctor?
Visit a health care provider (such as a doctor, nurse, or pharmacist) to get any vaccines, medicines, and advice you need before your trip. Going at least 4–6 weeks before you travel is best, so that any vaccines you need have time to take effect. (For more information, visit See a Doctor Before You Travel.)
