    Tourist disease. Food in Egypt can be a hazard. You can get sick and it will ruin your vacation.

    Even if you are prepared to the "Tourist disease" it sometimes will not be helpfull. Our Immodium does not work in Egypt! Just go to a local Chemist or Drugstore. They will know what to give you.
    Chemists and drugstores are abundant in Egypt and not hard to find.

  • I call this a tourist trap because it is the best way to get you to read it. Don't drink the water. I don't care where you stay: it's not even safe in the most expensive, fanciest, top-of-the-line hotels. (I speak from sad experience.) Avoid anything washed in water--like fresh fruit or vegetables for your salad. And if you decide to ignore my advice, don't bother with over-the-counter medication. It's like taking sugar pills. Get a prescription in advance for something like Cipro (U.S. name). Only a prescription drug will be powerful enough to get you back out of the bathroom.
