10) Anti malaria tablets
11) Water purification tablets.

Also remember to bring along first aid kits such as antiseptic plasters and dressings.

Check out the weather, climate and any potential dangers at your destination choice. If possible check with your doctor regarding the need to vaccinate for the countries that you are visiting. If your choice of destinations is Asia then it is best to get vaccinations to protect yourself against diseases such as hepatitis A & B, cholera, typhoid, malaria and yellow fever. Water taps of countries such as China and India and many other third world countries are never safe for drinking.

If you cant have access to bottle drinks, always make it a point to boil water from the tap.
If possible, try to brink a portable water filter and purification system to remove some of the contaminants from the water.
Last but not least, always remember to buy travel insurance for the peace of mind and for the sake of your loved ones.
