Practical Gypsy- Medications You Shouldn't Leave Home Without

While traveling there are certain medications you should have on hand in case anything should happen. You want to have the most amazing vacation ever so take a quick peak.

Ibuprophen (Motrin): Pain medication, anti inflamatory.
Dimenhydrinate (Dramamine): Motion sickness.
Pseudoephedrine (Sudafed): Decongestant for equalizing (if you're a diver).
Loperamide (Imodium): Relieves (but does not treat) symptoms of traveler's diarrhea.
Ciprofloxacin: Antibiotic for treating gastrointestinal and resperatory tract infections (will need a prescription for this one).
Diphenhydramine (Benedryl): Treats allergies.
Steroid Cream: Used for treating minor skin irritations and stings.

Always good to have those medications on hand. Better be prepared than sorry. Hope this helps for all those traveling in 2012. Have fun!
