Health and vaccination in Mongolia

Itching, indigestion, blister, small injury… These little things might easily waste your trip. This is what my personal medicine bag could contain: Medicine bag - Repellent against mosquitos and other insects - Soothing cream in case of vegetal irritation or insect bite - Solar protection cream - After sun cream - Disinfectant - Sterile compresses and plasters, among others anti blisters plasters - Bandage - Paracetamol - Anti haematomas and anti muscles aches cream - Medicines against diarrhoea and constipation - Throat pastilles - Eye lotion, in case of eye dryness - Broad-spectrum antibiotic - Tweezers - Purifying pastilles  Vaccination No vaccination is obligatory to come to Mongolia. Nevertheless you will travel in a remote zone of the world. So take some precautions. Vaccinations that Institut Pasteur recommends: - Diphteria, poliomyelitis and tetanus - Hepatitis A (if you travel a lot) - Typhoid (if you fear for risks) - Hepatitis B (for long or repeated travels) - Rabies (for solo travellers or adventurous tours) - Tick encephalitis (for the pony treks in Khovsgol in May, June ade July)
