Medical advice for Bermuda visitors:
Bring adequate supplies of all your required medications in their
original containers, clearly labeled. U.S. citizens must inform the Bermuda
customs officials of all medications at the point of entry. Carry a signed,
dated letter from your personal physician describing all medical conditions
and listing all medications, including generic names. If carrying syringes
or needles, be sure to carry a physician's letter documenting their medical
necessity. Pack all medications in hand luggage. Carry a duplicate supply in
the checked luggage. If you wear glasses or contacts, bring an extra pair.
If you have significant allergies or chronic medical problems, wear a
medical alert bracelet.
Pack a personal medical kit,
customized for your trip. Take appropriate measures to prevent motion
sickness and jet lag, discussed elsewhere. On long flights, be sure to walk
around the cabin, contract your leg muscles periodically, and drink plenty
of fluids to prevent blood clots in the legs. For those at high risk for
blood clots, consider wearing compression stockings.
Avoid contact with stray dogs and other animals. If an animal bites or
scratches you, clean the wound with large amounts of soap and water and
contact our local health authorities immediately. Wear sun block regularly
when needed. Use condoms for all sexual encounters. Ride only in motor
vehicles with seat belts. Do not ride on motorcycles/mopeds.
