Travel vaccine questions
How far before my trip should I get travel vaccines?+
Ideally six to eight weeks before you fly. Some vaccines need more than one dose, and most need about two weeks to start working. If you are leaving sooner, still come in: many vaccines help close to departure, and some courses can be speeded up.
I fly in a few days. Is it too late?+
Not usually. Single-dose vaccines such as hepatitis A and typhoid can still be given, and rapid schedules exist for some courses. A yellow fever certificate only becomes valid 10 days after the vaccine, so call us on 01249 892813 as soon as you can.
How much do travel vaccines cost?+
Each vaccine has a fixed price per dose, and your consultation with our pharmacist is included. You can see every price on our vaccines and prices page. You only pay for the vaccines you decide to have.
Are any travel vaccines free on the NHS?+
In England, some travel vaccines can be free from your GP: hepatitis A, typhoid, cholera, and the diphtheria, tetanus and polio booster. Others, such as yellow fever, rabies, Japanese encephalitis and hepatitis B for travel, are not available on the NHS. We will tell you which ones your GP may offer, so you only pay us for what you need.
Do I need a GP referral or appointment first?+
No. You can book directly with us. Bring a list of any medicines you take and any record of vaccines you have had before.
What happens at a travel consultation?+
Our pharmacist goes through where you are going, when, for how long and what you will be doing, plus your health and vaccine history. We then recommend only what suits your trip, give any vaccines you choose at the same visit, and advise on malaria tablets, food and water, and bite avoidance.
Can children have travel vaccines?+
Yes, many travel vaccines can be given to children, but minimum ages vary by vaccine. Bring your child's red book or vaccine record so we can check their routine vaccines are up to date too.
Can I have travel vaccines if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?+
Tell us when you book. Some vaccines are fine, while others, including some live vaccines such as yellow fever, are usually avoided unless the risk of travel outweighs the risk of the vaccine. Our pharmacist will talk this through with you.
Do I need malaria tablets?+
It depends on exactly where you are going and what you will be doing. Each of our destination pages shows the current malaria advice. If tablets are advised, we can supply them after your consultation and explain when to start and stop them.
