Go to www.travel.state.gov for security and safety issues...enjoy your travel.

Immodium A-D

Just remember that you will be visiting an African country.
It is third world out there.
You wont have the luxuries that you have back home: Good public transport system etc.
Other than that, it will be an awesome experience!
Go and do it.

Absolutely I can help. From personal experience I know you NEED to have a good travel medical plan. So much can go wrong to ruin a trip. Go to http://www.wavehelp.com/travel-medical/index.htm and click of the red phone booth to read about "Worldwide Health" insurance from the industry leader. It will cover you no matter where you go outside your home country.
Best wishes.
