TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about re-entering Thailand on a tourist visa obtained in Vientiane, Laos. Comments clarified that re-entry is permissible depending on whether the visa is single or multiple entry. However, it's important to note that re-entry will result in the same 'Admitted to Stay' stamp date, meaning no additional days will be granted.

Is it a single entry, or multiple entry visa?

Yes the visa is used. But when he entered he got an Admitted to Stay period for 60 days. This Admitted to Stay period can kept alive when he use a re-entry permit. He will get the same date on return as the current Admitted to Stay date in his passport.

In that case, you used it when you entered the country, and it is of no further use.

Yes, you can. But you will get the same date as the current Admitted to Stay stamp in your passport on return. You will not gain any days.
