Food Poisoning in Tangier: What to Do in an Emergency?

Are you on vacation in Tangier and suddenly, after a meal, experiencing violent stomach cramps, nausea, or diarrhea? This is commonly known as "Traveler's Diarrhea" or food poisoning. It's one of the most frequent reasons tourists seek medical help. If the symptoms are severe, don't take risks with dehydration: call Enurgence at +212 664 548 412 for a medical visit directly to your hotel or home.

What are the symptoms of Traveler's Diarrhea?

Food poisoning usually occurs after consuming unbottled water, ice cubes, or improperly washed or cooked food. Symptoms appear rapidly:

• Acute and watery diarrhea.
• Intense vomiting and inability to keep fluids down.
• Severe abdominal cramps and pain.
• Sometimes accompanied by fever or chills.

The #1 Danger: Dehydration

If you are repeatedly vomiting and have diarrhea, your body loses a massive amount of water and minerals. For vulnerable people, children, and the elderly, dehydration can become critical within hours. Going to a hospital ER in this condition is often an ordeal (travel, waiting times, crowded rooms).

Instead of moving, have the doctor come to you. By contacting Enurgence (+212 664 548 412), an emergency physician will arrive at your hotel room or Airbnb in under 20 minutes on average. The doctor can :

• Set up an intravenous (IV) drip if you are severely dehydrated, allowing for a spectacular and fast recovery without needing to visit the hospital.
• Prescribe the necessary medications for the following days.

A certified official medical invoice is provided at the end of the consultation so you can be 100% reimbursed by your travel insurance. Don't let illness ruin your trip, call +212 664 548 412.
