Hi Bella,

The following should get you covered:

• Vaccinations Yellow Fever (if you plan to go to the Amazon Basin), Typhoid (consists of two injections taken 4 weeks apart), Diphtheria-Tetanus, Polio, Cholera (only when necessary), Smallpox
  
• Medical Kit Depending on what you plan to do you can include the following:
  Antiseptic cream, aspirin, lomotil for diarrhoea, antibiotics, throat lozenges, ear and eye drops, antacid tablets, motion sickness medication, alcohol swabs, water purifier, lip salve, foot and groin powder, thermometer (in a case), surgical tape, assorted sticky plasters, gauze, bandages, butterfly closures, scissors and last but not least, first-aid booklet

Note: malaria pills are required in the Amazon basin, please be aware that those pills are very strong and you should check with your doctor before departure (I had the pills with me but didn't take them as I was hearing some horror stories of possible side effects).
