Pack a Travel Med Kit: Essential Antibiotics & Antivirals

When you travel, unexpected illness can derail your plans and rack up steep foreign medical bills. Packing a basic supply of prescription antibiotics, antivirals and other common meds gives you the power to start treatment immediately ...no scrambling for a clinic or paying tourist‑rates. Here’s why I personally use a JaseGo travel med kit and how the process works through our partner, Jase Medical.

Why carry prescription meds on your trip?

  • Avoid high out‑of‑network fees. Many overseas pharmacies charge premium rates for tourists.

  • Skip the clinic hunt. Waiting days for an appointment or navigating a new health system wastes precious vacation time.

  • Stay in touch with your home doctor. If you start feeling unwell, you can call your regular physician. If they recommend antibiotics or antivirals, you already have them on hand.

What to pack in a travel med kit

A well‑rounded kit covers the most likely emergencies:

  • Broad‑spectrum antibiotics (for respiratory, ear or urinary infections)

  • Antidiarrheals (like loperamide for traveler’s diarrhea)

  • Anti‑nausea meds (ondansetron or scopolamine patches)

  • Antihistamines (diphenhydramine for allergic reactions)

  • Antivirals (for flu or cold symptoms)

How Jase Medical makes it easy

  1. Quick online interview. Fill out a brief health questionnaire and complete a telemedicine consult with a doctor licensed in your state JASE Medical.

  2. Prescription review. A U.S.‑based licensed pharmacy fills your order by mail JASE Medical.

  3. Vacation‑ready case. Your meds arrive in a compact, durable travel case designed to keep them organized and protected JASE Medical.

Most orders are processed within two business days. To be safe, plan to order at least two weeks before departure. You can purchase up to two kits per person each year.
