If you are not having symptoms yet, you could try activated charcoal from any pharmacy to help absorb potential toxins, but that is not a substitute for real treatment. The bigger risk with raw pork in Thailand is a bacterial infection like salmonella or campylobacter, which usually hits within 6 to 24 hours with diarrhea and cramps. For parasites like trichinosis, symptoms take a week or more and require a specific antiparasitic only available by prescription. Better to just watch for signs and go to a clinic near Saphan Khwai or Victory Monument if anything comes up, they cost around 500 baht and will give you the right meds without the hospital markup.

tbh the other replies are right about not self-medicating but since u asked for easy pharmacy stuff, your best bet is norfloxacin or loperamide from any 7-11 pharmacy counter. norfloxacin is a common antibiotic here for food poisoning, costs like 20 baht for 10 pills. but honestly if u don't have symptoms yet, just wait and drink lots of water with salt and sugar. the grilled sausage stalls near bts stations like asok or ekkamai usually cook em through, might just be the fat inside looking raw

You don't want to mess with undercooked pork in Bangkok. The main concern is parasites like trichinosis or bacterial infections. Skip the pharmacy self-diagnosis route and go straight to a clinic or hospital like Bumrungrad or a government one like Rajavithi, they'll test you and give the right antibiotics or antiparasitics. Over-the-counter meds from Boots or Watsons won't cut it for something like this, and you could waste time on the wrong pill. If you're already feeling sick with stomach pain or fever, don't wait.

yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
