PostHeaderIcon Panama HEALTH TIPS

The government of Panama does not require any vaccinations in order to enter the country. There have been (a few) cases of malaria reported throughout Panama, so if you are concerned you may wish to take an anti-malarial drug. Other health related problems are: dengue fever (slight more frequent that malaria) – throughout Panama; Yellow fever (rare) – distribution unknown.

Most medicines are widely available in Panama City and at a similar rate to that in most western countries. Most medicines are sold by the same trademark names used in the U.S.

For emergencies, there are many good private clinics and hospitals throughout the country, but the biggest and best equipped are located in Panama City.
