Medical Services in Abuja
Always keep your medication in its original packaging to avoid any misunderstandings at border controls when arriving in Abuja. It may be worth keeping a card in your wallet with your personal medical details, such as any medical conditions, your blood type and who is responsible for any medical costs. If you wear glasses, it is also a good idea to bring a copy of your eyesight prescription in case you need to buy new glasses during your stay.
