How many injections will I need?

The number of and type of travel injections needed will depend on your vaccination and medical history and also your destinations of travel. For example a rabies vaccination will require you to have three injections on days 0,7 and 28.

What if I am travelling to multiple countries?

Our travel health expert will carry out a detailed consultation of your travel itinerary and advice you accordingly. It would realy help if you could bring a detailed itinerary with you containing travel dates, length of stays and city or town names you will be staying at.

When do I need travel vaccinations by?

This depends on your requirements but generally we advice you to have all vaccinations 6 - 8 weeks before travelling. Some vaccinations such as Hepatitis B and Rabies will require you to have three injections with a certain amount of time certain in between each injection. If your travelling in an emergency then it is still better to have started a vaccination course than not having one at all. Also remember that most vaccines take around two weeks to give protection.

Who administers the injections?

All injections are administered by our highly trained pharmacists.

How much do travel vaccinations cost?
