Returning from holiday

If you were treated abroad, declare your medication in customs on return to the UK; it may not be legal to bring it in to the country.

Remember to keep a list of any treatments received abroad and to keep all receipts for treatments or drugs if you wish to make a claim on you travel insurance.

Remember to continue and finish your course of anti-malarials on return, otherwise you may still be at risk from developing malaria.

If you have diarrhoea on return and your job involves food handling, tell your employer as soon as possible.

If you were ill abroad, submit a note of the illness, with as much medical information as possible to your GP on your return.

If you fall ill after returning, remember to tell your doctor where you have travelled.
