Wouldn't it be better to see your doc before you travel and get some medication?

Antibiotics are available over the counter in Icmeler.
I have bought them at the Pharmacy in the square,just behind the ATMs.
The owners are very helpful and the costs are reasonable.

yes antibiotics are avalible in all chemists over the counter but beware the doseages are far higher than here they ussally start at 500mg and go to 1000mg but make sure you tell them your problem and that they understand as this can be quite dangerous

I forgot to mention they are stronger than here in the UK.
The ones I bought were 750mgs Ciprofloxacin and were for me to take to Egypt(Just in case!)
Even the dispersible Aspirin are 100mgs instead of 75mgs.

The reason I said see your doc before you go is that you use different antibiotics for different conditions so you've got to be careful that they understand what the problem is.
