November 24, 200817 yr At the time I was going to Vietnam in April there were several reported cases of cholera there, so, to be on the safe side, I inquired at Bangkok Pattaya Hospital about a vaccine. After talking to numerous people I was able to get the vaccine for my bf and me. It required 2 oral doses a week apart and the second needed to be taken at least a week before travel. I forget exactly how much it was, but it was expensive.

The dosing was the same as yours. I remember thinking it was also quite expensive (maybe $150 or so). Don't quote me on that.
