01
Travel

Prepare your kit for a trip to Andorra.

Before you leave, review your usual medication and take enough for the whole trip. Keep products in their original packaging and carry any information you may need.

  • Check expiry dates and storage conditions.
  • Adapt your kit to the activities and the people travelling.
  • Ask a pharmacist if you have questions about transport or use.
02
Everyday care

Sun and altitude: habits worth remembering.

In the mountains, make sun protection part of your routine even on cloudy days. Protect your lips and eyes too, and choose products suited to your skin and planned activity.

  • Apply protection in advance and reapply when needed.
  • Add protective clothing, sunglasses and time in the shade.
  • Ask which texture and format are best for you.
03
Responsible use

How to store and use your medicines.

Always follow your healthcare professional’s instructions and keep each medicine with its information leaflet. Do not share treatments, and avoid storing medicines in humid places or where temperatures change suddenly.

  • Check the instructions before every use.
  • Keep medicines out of the reach of children.
  • Take expired medicines to the appropriate collection point.
