Ideally, this visit should take place 4-6 weeks before a trip, but even getting a consultation during the week before travel can be of value. The pre-travel visit includes a discussion of the immunizations, prophylactic medications (such as antimalarial drugs), and specific health advice for preventing and treating Travelers diarrhea and other illnesses that may arise. Travelers who have chronic health issues or who take medications may also need to coordinate their pre-travel care with their primary care provider.
