If short on time, consult your doctor on taking altitude sickness (acetazolamide/Diamox) or go for the natural remedy of locals, chewing coca leaves. We strongly recommend acclimatizing to the altitude before partaking in the trek.

Not everyone gets sick at high altitudes, and it is difficult to predict who is likely to be badly affected by it.
