National health agencies often list immunization recommendations for travelers to Thailand. Our CDC suggests Hepatitis A and Typhoid. After accidentally stepping in an uncovered sewer hole at the night market in Songkhla, I can say that these can provide some peace of mind.

It's also useful to carry a small bottle of hand sanitizer. There are many occasions when you want to eat with your hands but can't find a good sink with soap and warm water. I think some of my problems on my first trip were caused by not cleaning my hands at the right times.
