From Bangkok to Malaria-Land !?

Country forums / South-East Asia Mainland

I'm in Bangkok at the moment ... You have all been very helpful so far ... Thanks !!

YES you you can get doxycline (100mg) in BKK for 6 THB (local brand) ... over the counter in the local pharmacy ... Big difference from Malarone in Europe ... 180 THB !!!

DEET28 in small spray 150 THB ... 100 ml (?) ... How long is that gonna last ... I'm planning for two months in Cambodia and Laos ...

Metherine for spraying clothes ... Where do I get that ???

I need the second Twinrix-shot ... for Hep A+B ... Somewhere on this site I was recommended The University Hospital ... But now I can't find it ???

The Cambodian Embassy in BKK ... Where is it ???

I think it's Permethrin you are talking about, for treating clothes. I got mine form the states- don't know if it's available there. Where exactly are you going to BE in those places? Are you sure all that's necessary? (For some places they are very good precautions)
