1 week in Bangkok, reputable IV clinics?

Another spot worth considering is AMRA Wellness on Soi Thong Lo 13. They do a combination drip with NAD+ and vitamin C that runs about 3,500 baht, and the doctor actually takes time to explain what's in each bag. I've been a few times and the atmosphere is much calmer than the mall clinics, less of a conveyor belt feeling. Just keep in mind they close at 6pm and don't take walk-ins on weekends.

You'll find plenty of clinics around Thong Lo that do NAD+ drips, not just the touristy ones. Dr. Paisal's at Bangkok Hospital is solid if you want a proper medical setting, but the wait can be long. For something quicker, check out The IV Lounge on Soi 49 - they're clean, the nurses are good, and a glutathione session runs about 1,500 baht. Just call ahead because some places need a doctor consult first.

If you're near Siam, check out The IV Clinic at Siam Paragon. It's on the 4th floor near the food court, not cheap but they use proper medical-grade stuff and the nurses actually check your vitals before starting. I've had a few friends do the glutathione drip there and they said it's about 2,000 baht for a session. The other option is Vital Life Wellness on Sukhumvit 39, they do NAD+ drips but you need to book at least a day in advance because they mix everything fresh.

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
