We went last August and took the raspberry extract from bramble farm - rather yummy stuff! also took TravelBug.
We previously took Inner Health Plus before they released travelbug.
Out of the last three trips I have been sick once (the first trip) and not since. My husband however has taken the exact same stuff, eaten the exact same foods/bevvies and has been sick each time. In august he was so sick the doc tried very hard to admit him to hospital but hubby wouldnt go. 2 injections & 2 doc visits later he was still sick after 5 days and it was time to go home.
Doc in perth gave him Metrogyl tablets and they seemed to work a treat. But you only take them IF you get sick. Seems my hubby is just susceptible to getting sick - and we are there in March 2010!!
So we are taking the Metrogyl tabs just in case it happens again.
Hubby is very cautious about hygiene and eating, etc but still manages to get sick. I eat whatever looks yummy and dont get sick.
