When Your Child Gets Ill On Vacation
A sick or injured child can turn a fun filled family vacation into a disaster. Prepare for the unpredictable before you leave home.
If anyone in your family takes prescription, over the counter medication, or supplements regularly, be sure you have enough on hand for the trip. You may not be able to find them in a strange town.
Remember, not all OTC medicines are available everywhere. If there is a specific brand of allergy medicine your child uses occasionally, take it with you.
For prescriptions, carry a new written script with you.
