Medical facilities are of a very high quality but are extremely expensive. Private health/travel insurance is essential.
Note: Some UK prescription/over the counter medicines are illegal in UAE.
Food and drink:
Water throughout the UAE is safe to drink and food standards are high in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, which have world-class restaurants. Care should be taken elsewhere, as there have been some concerns regarding unscrupulous restaurants in smaller towns, however the government recently cracked down on food safety and hygiene laws.
Other risks:
Vaccinations against tuberculosis and hepatitis B are sometimes advised.
