What drug is it? Never heard of that from Passport health. I think it is also overkill.
It's homeopathic quackery
Hell, no! it sounds scary! 2 trips to Africa, never had that problem. Food it's fresh and clean-
I was able to see the ‘kit’ on the Passport Health website. It is $58 . The only real drug approved by the FDA is Immodium. Two of the others are homeopathy type things as BKMD says.
Here is just one of them, it’s Bovine Colostrum 😂😂😂😂

Save yourself a ton of money and buy some generic Immodium. which will cost you just a few dollars. We never travel without a supply just in case.
Unfortunately, Travel Health has a reputation for selling unnecessary stuff, I think that’s how the staff must make more money on the side
Probably not approved by the FDA.
I always travel with Imodium too. I try and make my medicine emergency kit as small as possible. You just never know.
Imodium is so effective that you may need one or two doses at the most for travelers diarrhea.No need for anything else.Just watching what and how much you eat and drink can prevent GI ailments.
Not necessarily. Some people just have sensitive stomaches. It could be a change in the type of oil being used while cooking, a different type of milk in your coffee, etc etc.
Haha! Thanks for the info. We’ll stick with Imodium then. I had never heard of it so was curious.
Always travel with Imodium and if that is not effectively, I have azithromycin which has been effective for travelers diarrhea.
