is a must-have for international travel. The product works with a
traveler’s natural defenses, providing nutrients and immune factors to
support digestive health and rapidly restore intestinal function.
Traveler’s diarrhea is the most common illness affecting international
travelers. The malady is so well known that it has earned many
nicknames, including “Montezuma’s revenge,” “Pharaoh’s Revenge,” and
“Delhi Belly,” giving an idea of which destinations result in the
preponderance of travelers sickened with the disease. Every year, 20 to
50 percent of Americans who travel internationally, or about 10 million
people, come down with a case of traveler’s diarrhea.
“This new and innovative product will greatly benefit business and
leisure travelers,” said Carrie Falbe, director of product and service
development for Passport Health. “We are very excited to make DiaResQ®
the cornerstone of our traveler’s diarrhea standard of care.”
“We are very proud to be expanding our relationship with Passport
Health. As the industry leader in travel health clinics, they are the
ideal partners for us in the travel channel,” said Mark Braman,
president and CEO of PanTheryx. “Passport Health provides an
unparalleled opportunity to introduce travelers to DiaResQ® as
a safe, fast way to address diarrhea.”
DiaResQ® was recently named in the Reimagining Global
Health report as one of the 30
leading healthcare innovations with great promise to transform
global health by 2030 and to help accelerate progress toward new health
targets proposed in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
