health issues in India

Be really careful about water. Buy bottled water, check that the bottle is completely sealed. Try and eat at proper restaurants. Other than that, India is great.

My doctor recommended malaria prevention tablets (larium), and shots for,hepatitis, polio, tetnus, and tuberculosis.

Amy, make sure you visit your doctor at least 2 months prior to the trip and ask for your travel shots. You may also visit the CDC web site for more info.
