Our Travel Vaccination Service
Our pharmacy offers a comprehensive travel vaccination service to help protect you against diseases that may be present in your destination. Our trained pharmacists provide expert advice on recommended vaccines based on your travel plans and medical history. We offer vaccinations for common travel-related illnesses such as hepatitis A and B, typhoid, yellow fever, and rabies. With a convenient and professional service, we ensure you are fully prepared for your trip. Book an appointment for an in-clinic consultation and get the necessary vaccinations before you travel.
Vaccines we offer
Our pharmacy provides a wide range of travel vaccines to protect you from various diseases while travelling abroad. Common vaccines include Hepatitis A and B, which protect against liver infections caused by contaminated food, water, or blood; Typhoid, which prevents a serious bacterial infection often found in regions with poor sanitation; and Yellow Fever, a mandatory vaccine for entry into certain countries with a risk of transmission. We also offer the Rabies vaccine for those at risk of animal bites, Cholera for travellers to areas with unsafe drinking water, and Meningitis ACWY, which is required for Hajj and Umrah pilgrims. Our trained pharmacists can assess your travel plans and recommend the appropriate vaccinations to keep you safe during your trip.
How long do the vaccines last?
The duration of protection provided by travel vaccines varies depending on the vaccine and individual factors. For example, the Hepatitis A vaccine typically offers protection for 25 years or more, while Typhoid vaccines need to be renewed every 2 to 3 years. Yellow Fever vaccination provides long-term protection, usually for 10 years or more, and may be required for re-entry to some countries after this period. Rabies vaccines require a series of shots for initial protection, followed by boosters if you're at continued risk. It's important to consult with our pharmacy to ensure you're up-to-date on vaccinations and discuss any necessary booster shots before travelling.
Check to see if you need a vaccine
To determine if you need a vaccine for your trip, it's best to consult with our pharmacy or a healthcare professional. They will assess your travel destination, duration of stay, and any underlying health conditions to recommend the appropriate vaccinations. You can also refer to official travel health websites or your government’s travel advice for specific vaccine requirements based on your destination. Our pharmacy provides personalized guidance to ensure you’re properly protected before you travel.
Side effects of travel vaccinations
Like all vaccines, travel vaccinations can cause some side effects, although they are generally mild and temporary. Common side effects include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or fatigue. In rare cases, some individuals may experience more serious reactions, such as an allergic response. It’s important to discuss any concerns with our pharmacy team, especially if you have allergies or underlying health conditions. Our pharmacists can provide advice on how to manage side effects and ensure you’re fully informed before receiving your vaccinations.
