Our Treatments

Antibiotic Treatments

These systemic treatments are the gold standard for moderate to severe bacterial diarrhea. They work by targeting and eliminating common pathogens like E. coli or Campylobacter, significantly shortening the duration of the illness and preventing complications.

Rifaximin (Xifaxan®)

A non-systemic antibiotic that stays primarily in the gut. It is NICE-approved for both the treatment and prevention of traveler’s diarrhea caused by non-invasive strains of E. coli.

Symptom Management

These treatments are used to manage the immediate physical effects of the infection. While they do not kill the bacteria, they are vital for maintaining hydration and physical comfort while the antibiotics work or for milder cases.

Loperamide (Imodium®)

The standard “anti-motility” agent used to slow down the digestive system and reduce the frequency of bowel movements, providing immediate relief from the urgency of diarrhea.

Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS)

Essential for replacing lost electrolytes and preventing the severe dehydration that can occur with traveler’s diarrhea, ensuring your body has the stamina to recover.

Bismuth Subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol®)

A versatile treatment that can be used both as a preventative and for relief of nausea, indigestion, and diarrhea by coating the stomach and calming inflammation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Travellers Diarrhoea

What is travellers' diarrhoea and what causes it? −
Travellers' diarrhoea is a common condition affecting people visiting regions with different sanitation standards, most often caused by bacteria in contaminated food or water. It typically causes loose, frequent stools along with cramping, nausea, or mild fever.
What treatment options are available? +
Most mild cases are managed with oral rehydration and over-the-counter anti-diarrhoeal medication. For those travelling to remote, high-risk areas with limited access to medical care, a clinician may prescribe standby antibiotics to carry with you in case of a more significant episode.
How quickly can I expect relief after starting treatment? +
Anti-diarrhoeal medication can reduce symptoms within a few hours, especially when taken early. If standby antibiotics are needed for a bacterial cause, most people notice significant improvement within a day or two.
Do I need a physical appointment to get standby treatment? +
No, you can complete a short online consultation covering your travel plans and medical history, and a clinician will review it to confirm whether standby treatment is suitable to carry with you.
Are there any side effects of the treatment? −
Anti-diarrhoeal medication can occasionally cause dizziness, tiredness, or constipation. Antibiotics, where prescribed, may cause mild nausea or stomach upset. Your clinician will explain what to expect for the specific option given to you.
When should I avoid taking anti-diarrhoeal medication? +
You should avoid it if you have blood or mucus in your stool, or a high fever, as this can suggest a more invasive infection needing proper medical assessment rather than symptom suppression alone.
What can I do to prevent dehydration while unwell? +
Drinking plenty of fluids, ideally with oral rehydration salts, is important, especially for children, pregnant women, older travellers, and anyone with an existing health condition, as they're more vulnerable to the effects of fluid loss.
When should I seek medical help instead of self-treating? +
Seek medical attention if symptoms are severe, persist beyond a few days, include blood in the stool, high fever, or signs of dehydration such as dizziness and reduced urination, particularly if you're in a remote location.
