Overview

Each year 20%-50% of international travelers, an estimated 10 million people, develop diarrhea. There are a number of colloquialisms for travelers' diarrhea contracted in various localities, such as Montezuma's revenge for travelers' diarrhea contracted in Mexico. Attack rates are similar for men and women.
