Food Poisoning Treatment in Phuket
Vomiting and cramps a few hours after a meal? Food poisoning hits fast and hard — and IV fluids with anti-nausea medication turn the worst day of your holiday around quickly.
How We Treat It
- Doctor assessment and hydration check
- IV fluid rehydration in clinic or at your hotel
- Anti-nausea and anti-cramp medication
- Stool testing when symptoms persist
- Antibiotics only when genuinely indicated
When to See a Doctor
Most food poisoning is self-limiting within 24–48 hours; the danger is dehydration, especially in this heat. If you cannot keep fluids down for more than a few hours, IV rehydration is the fix — it works within the hour.
Seek care urgently if you see blood in vomit or stool, have a high fever, severe constant abdominal pain, or signs of dehydration (dizziness, minimal dark urine, racing heart). Small children and older adults dehydrate much faster — bring them in early.

Should I take anti-diarrhea tablets?
Not automatically — blocking diarrhea can prolong some infections. Rehydrate first and let the doctor decide based on your symptoms.

If you can travel, the clinic is faster and cheaper. If you cannot leave the bathroom, we come to you — 24/7.
