Cruise Medicine:

Usually, the doctors on board are independent contractors. They add charges you incur to your shipboard account.
Another extremely important point to make is that you should take medication with you in carry-on luggage.
Once you check your luggage with the airlines, you will not have access to that luggage until delivered to your cabin.
If you need to store insulin , contact the cruise line beforehand to inquire about storage facilities.
You may have to upgrade your stateroom if you want to store the insulin yourself. Some staterooms have mini-bars.
Diabetic Travelers: See this quick read (one long page) Checklist for Diabetic Travelers.
Also, at the end of that checklist, you will see another link for a website that can provide detail diabetes information, from a diabetic's point of view.
If you have a concern about motion sickness, contact your own doctor.
Oftentimes, you need to take motion sickness remedies several hours prior to sailing in order to receive the most effective benefit.
Finally, you may want to inquire about insurance to protect against potential medical charges.
