Although no inoculations are required for entry into India, but jabs of meningitis, typhoid, malaria and hepatitis B are recommended. Avoid being bitten by mosquitoes. Always drink bottled water eg. Bisleri. Getting medical help is no big deal as almost every village / city has pharmacies and Doctors. Even medicines are available at fraction of what you might pay at home.

book a visit to the travel nurse at your doctors. they will have a record of what you have had and up to date info on what you will need
different area's and time's of the year can make a difference to what you will need eg malaria and what type

You need the " GOD! Help me !" Jab. He's the only one who can save you from the diseases in India particularly at a time when there's an epidemic of Dengue fever and Chikungunya. So, go ahead, Take the jab.

Call your doctors office and tell them where you are going and when. They will figure it out.

Expect to get more shots than a pin cushion, and expect to still get sick when you are there.
