Your travel health needs can vary considerably depending on your trip. During your consultation, our healthcare professional will consider:
The country or countries you're visiting
The specific areas or regions you'll be travelling to
How long you'll be away
Your accommodation and style of travel
Activities you have planned
How soon you're travelling
Your medical history
Any medicines you currently take
Your previous vaccination history
This allows us to provide advice that's relevant to your individual trip, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.
If you have a record of your previous vaccinations, it's helpful to have this available during your consultation.
Depending on your destination, itinerary, previous vaccination history and individual circumstances, we may recommend vaccinations such as:
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis B
Typhoid
Rabies
Yellow Fever
Japanese Encephalitis
Tetanus, Diphtheria & Polio (Td/IPV)
Meningococcal (MenACWY)
Not every traveller will need every vaccination. Our healthcare professional will explain which vaccinations are recommended for your trip and why.
Some vaccinations require more than one dose, so it's best to seek travel health advice as early as possible before your departure.
Vaccinations are only one part of staying healthy while travelling. Depending on your destination and planned activities, our healthcare professional may also provide advice on:
Preventing mosquito and insect bites
Food and water safety
Reducing the risk of travellers' diarrhoea
General infection prevention
Staying safe in hot climates
Managing existing health conditions while travelling
Travelling with regular medication
Other destination-specific health precautions
Where appropriate, we'll also advise if you should consider additional preventative treatment or seek further medical advice before travelling.
Following your Travel Advice consultation, our healthcare professional will explain which vaccinations or preventative measures are recommended for your trip.
If travel vaccinations are recommended, you can arrange the appropriate private vaccination services with PillBox Chemists.
We'll explain the recommended vaccination schedule, including how many doses you may need and when they should ideally be given before you travel.
If you don't require any vaccinations, we'll still provide relevant travel health advice to help you prepare for your trip and reduce avoidable health risks while you're away.
If you're travelling soon, don't assume you've left it too late. Speak to our pharmacy team, as there may still be vaccinations or preventative measures that can be provided before you travel.
Planning a trip abroad? Depending on where you're travelling, how long you're staying and what you'll be doing, you may need vaccinations or other precautions to help protect your health while you're away.
Our Travel Advice service provides personalised guidance based on your individual travel plans. One of our healthcare professionals will review your destination, itinerary, medical history and previous vaccinations to identify potential health risks associated with your trip.
We'll then explain which vaccinations, preventative measures or other travel health precautions may be recommended for you.
Travel health recommendations vary depending on your destination, itinerary, length of stay, planned activities, medical history and previous vaccinations.
Travel vaccinations are private services and are charged separately where required. Our healthcare professional will explain which vaccinations are recommended and any applicable costs before proceeding.
Some destinations may have specific vaccination or entry requirements, and these can change. We recommend checking the latest official travel and entry requirements for your destination before travelling.
