Most Cartagena trips run 4 to 6 days — Old Town walks, rooftop dinners, a day boat to the Rosario Islands or Playa Blanca, and the heavy ceviche, arepa, and Caribbean seafood circuit that makes the city worth visiting in the first place. The climate sits at 82 percent average humidity with daytime highs of 86 to 91°F essentially every month of the year, which matches the heat-plus-street-food shape the CDC associates with traveler's diarrhea. Between 30 and 70 percent of travelers on 2-week Latin America trips report at least one episode, and Cartagena's mix of beachside ceviche stands, juice carts, and small Old Town comedores sits right in that band. The right prescriptions in your bag turn a bad ceviche into an inconvenience instead of a lost day in Getsemaní.

Cartagena medication FAQ
- Most travelers won't need them, but the math is unforgiving when you do. The CDC puts traveler's diarrhea incidence at 30 to 70 percent on 2-week trips through developing regions, and Cartagena's mix of 82 percent humidity, 90°F days, and the ceviche-and-street-food culture along Old Town and the Rosario Islands sits right in that band. Having the prescriptions in your bag before you fly means a bad meal becomes one day on the hotel balcony instead of a hunt for a Cartagena urgent-care that takes US insurance.
