The thread started as an antibiotic question but seems to be more about vaccinations.
Firstly, never had an vaccinations to go to Phuket. Not exactly like heading into a jungle any more. To me its like heading to the Gold Coast in Queensland AUS. Hot tourist location with a beach and a landscape of high rise resorts. so the chances of catching some exotic disease in Patong in my opinion is unlikely.

As far as antibiotics. Last year I had a tooth filling a few days before heading to LOS. On arrival I had developed an infection in the gum. I went straight to the first pharmacy ask for something for an infection. They gave me amoxycillin (not sure of spelling) no prescription required and very cheap.
