Frequently Asked Questions
In many cases, yes. If you’re preparing for a trip and need a refill on common travel-related prescriptions—such as altitude sickness medication, malaria prevention, motion sickness medication, or other travel essentials—an Indigo Urgent Care provider can evaluate your needs and determine whether a refill is appropriate. Be sure to bring your current prescription information and share details about your travel plans so your provider can help make sure you’re covered before you go.
During your visit, a provider will review your travel itinerary, health history, and planned activities to help identify potential health risks. You’ll receive personalized guidance, recommended precautions, and prescriptions for travel-related medications if needed.
If you’re traveling internationally, visiting remote areas, or heading to destinations with specific health risks, a travel health visit can help you prepare with the right preventive steps, medication recommendations, and vaccine referrals.
Vaccine recommendations depend on your destination, planned activities, and health history. Indigo Urgent Care can help identify which vaccines may be recommended or required and refer you to a travel vaccine provider or pharmacy.
It’s best to schedule your visit at least 4–6 weeks before your trip. This gives you time to get any recommended vaccines elsewhere and make sure prescriptions or preventive plans are in place.
Bring your travel itinerary, any available immunization records, a list of current medications, and any questions or concerns about your destination.
Over-the-counter motion sickness medications like dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) and meclizine (Antivert, Bonine, Dramamine Less Drowsy) are oral antihistamines that you take 30 to 60 minutes before travel. You can take them every 8 hours.
Scopolamine (Transderm-Scop) is a prescription adhesive patch that's FDA-approved to treat the nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness. You apply the anti-nausea patch behind your ear 4 to 12 hours before travel and change it every 72 hours as needed.
Insurance coverage varies by plan. Some plans may cover the medical consultation, while travel-specific care may be considered non-covered or elective. Check with your insurance provider for details
