Trying local flavors is a highlight of any trip to Tangier, but sometimes your stomach might disagree. Food poisoning can range from mild discomfort to severe dehydration.
Common Symptoms
Nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps, and diarrhea are the hallmarks of food poisoning. While they often pass within 24 hours, they can be particularly hard to manage in a hotel room.
When to Seek Medical Help
- If you cannot keep down any fluids.
- If you have a high fever (above 38.5°C).
- If you see blood in your stool.
- If you feel extremely dizzy or weak.
How a Doctor Can Help at Your Hotel
A visiting doctor can provide anti-nausea medication (orally or via injection) and rehydration salts. In some cases, a fast-acting IV drip can be administered at your bedside to restore your strength quickly so you can get back to enjoying your trip.
