Travel medicine, otherwise called emporiatrics, is the branch of medicine that deals with diseases and conditions that travelers are susceptible to. Travel medicine specialists have knowledge about travel-related illnesses, global risks of infectious and noninfectious diseases, immunization requirements, and health regulations of various countries. Before traveling to another country, such physicians can help assess travel-related risks and advise you on appropriate interventions to prevent illnesses during travel. Depending on the country you are planning to travel, they might suggest vaccination against hepatitis A and B, typhoid, rabies, tetanus, and meningococcal meningitis. Or they might give preventive medicines against malaria, traveler's diarrhea, and tuberculosis. In case you are planning international travel, make sure you consult a travel medicine specialist.
