Extra Tips for Visitors in Puerto Vallarta
Whether you’re here for a week or living long-term, a few things to know about staying healthy in Puerto Vallarta.
Prescription refills for expats
If you’re a long-term resident or snowbird who ran out of medication, we can help with refills for most chronic conditions — hypertension, diabetes, thyroid, cholesterol — without the hassle of navigating the Mexican public health system.
Never drink tap water
Even long-term residents use bottled water. Always use purified water for drinking and brushing teeth. Most restaurants use purified water for ice, but it’s worth checking when in doubt.
Jellyfish season
Jellyfish are present in Banderas Bay seasonally. Most stings cause temporary pain and skin irritation. Consult us if you experience a severe reaction, widespread rash, or difficulty breathing after a sting.
Pacific UV protection
The UV index in Puerto Vallarta is high year-round. Apply SPF 50+ sunscreen every 2 hours and reapply after swimming. Sunburn can develop in under 20 minutes, even on overcast days.
Avoid self-medicating
Antibiotics require a prescription in Mexico. Always consult a doctor first — our consultation takes 15 minutes and gives you a valid digital prescription immediately.
Official health guidance
For official travel health information for Mexico, visit the Secretaría de Salud México or your country’s travel advisory page before your trip.
