Hi,
We are going to Thailand in November and was wondering if anyone could advise us on which jabs and medications we may need etc...
Many thanks
Lou
It depends exactly where you are going and what you will be doing
As a base we had to have tetanus, diptheria, polio, hep A and Typhoid.
Go see your doctor as they know your history as well - I would never rely on a public forum for medical issues!
Have never had any jabs in the six years we have been going , but have packed Imodium in case I had the runs and they were needed all six times!
Although anti malaria and Typhoid drugs aren't normally prescribed for Thailand , I always keep the other jabs up to date, but as previous posters said check with the professionals, Better to be safe that sorry.
Was not trying to be a smart ass, Tetanus/diphtheria, polio and measles inoculations should be up to date, what I meant was I did not have an anti Malaria jab, there have been cases of dengue fever reported in Chiang mai but there is no vaccine for that I read.
Been 11 times and never needed immodium...what you eating?
It's the food or water they wash it in I think (salads), only lasts a day or so until stomach adjusts, the rest of the month I am ok.
