Abstract
Trips abroad to underdeveloped countries for the purpose of providing dermatologic care (medical missions), while both exciting and gratifying, require planning and forethought. What do I bring? What conditions will I encounter? What medications will be available? This paper outlines my experiences on such trips over the past 15 years, providing an approach and formulary which facilitates the performance of daily medical dermatology clinics.
