"I bought a Medipac from you last month, just before heading out to Haiti on a business trip.  I thought I'd email to say that it came in very handy.  My colleague was struck down by something questionable that he ate - solved by the Imodium, and someone at the hotel sliced their foot open on a piece of glass, and a doctor staying at the hotel was able to use the suture pack to sew him up (the hotel didn't have any). I'll definitely be taking this in any other trips I have to the region."  R.P.

"If it had not been for the pack, our holiday may well have been ruined as my husband slipped and
hurt his ribs in Dubai en-route to PNG.  I also needed the antibiotics on the last leg in Singapore when I contracted a chest infection - as I was able to start the tablets as soon as I started to cough up green phlegm, the infection did not manage to get a real hold and I was able to enjoy Singapore.  It was a once in a lifetime holiday to celebrate my 50th birthday and without the medipac would have been memorable for the wrong
reasons - thank you."  H.E.

 
Why buy a
medipac?

Because we know that over 79% of travellers will get sick when abroad, we have created this medical pack that contains a combination of:

  • Prescription-only medication
  • Sterile dressings
  • Many other useful items that can save your trip from disaster.

e-med has created the medipac because:

  • We were consulting with a lot of travellers who were getting sick whilst abroad
  • The problems often needed to be treated immediately, but whilst abroad the following problems frequently occur:
    • Difficult to find a pharmacist
    • Limited range of stock in pharmacist
    • Out of date stock
    • Problems with bootlegged drugs
    • Stock may take too long to arrive
    • Stock may simply not be available to the pharmacist

The medipac allows you to take the treatment with you so you can quickly treat any problem and your time away won't be ruined.

As e-med sources the contents of the medipac wholesale, we can pass the savings on to you. You would be charged over £200 if, having obtained the relevant prescriptions, you bought the contents from your local pharmacy.

The medipac could save your life.

Don't leave home without it !
