Current Health Conditions

We strongly encourage all travelers currently in treatment for chronic health conditions (such as anxiety, asthma, Crohn's disease, concussion, depression, diabetes, eating disorder, etc.), and especially those on prescription medications, to touch base with their healthcare provider or Baylor Health Services prior to departure to discuss managing their conditions abroad. This is particularly important if the traveler will be abroad for more than three weeks.

If you are currently on a prescribed medication, please review how to obtain sufficient quantities of your prescription medication. 

Impact of location

Changes in air quality, elevation, diet, climate and geography/topography as well as stress factors related to culture and language can exacerbate symptoms of pre-existing health conditions.
