At the end of the day, over-the-counter medicine can be very pricy abroad (come to think of it, they e very pricy at home too – so why should abroad be any different?)
Just remember that the money you put aside for holiday treats could end up being siphoned away in the local drugstore instead. OK, forget about tonsillitis. Instead, think about Delhi Belly or chronic diarrhea. Are you really so street-wise that you know which local restaurants to avoid? If serious food poisoning results in your hospitalisation who’s going to pay for your treatment then?
