What Our Customers Are Saying
FAQ’s
These are the most common questions that we get asked.
What is chickenpox, and how is it transmitted?
Chickenpox is a viral infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It spreads easily through the air via coughs or sneezes, or by direct contact with the rash of an infected person.
Why should I get the chickenpox vaccine?
The chickenpox vaccine is highly effective at preventing the disease and its complications, which can include severe skin infections, pneumonia, and in rare cases, death. Vaccination is recommended for children and adults who haven’t had the disease or been vaccinated.
Who should get the chickenpox vaccine?
The chickenpox vaccine is recommended for children, adolescents, and adults who have never had chickenpox or haven’t been vaccinated. Certain individuals, such as pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems, should consult a healthcare provider before getting vaccinated.
What should I expect after getting the chickenpox vaccine?
Most people experience mild side effects, such as soreness at the injection site or a low-grade fever. Serious side effects are rare. Our team will provide you with all the necessary post-vaccination care information.
HOW MUCH DOES THIS COST?
Chickenpox vaccination starts from £65.00 per dose. Our full price list can be accessed here.

Protect Yourself and Your Family Against Chickenpox
Chickenpox, or varicella, is a highly contagious viral infection that causes an itchy rash, fever, and fatigue. Although often mild in children, chickenpox can lead to more severe symptoms and complications in adults and those with weakened immune systems. Our chickenpox vaccination services help protect you and your family from this preventable illness, providing essential immunity and peace of mind.
Why Get the Chickenpox Vaccine?
While many recover from chickenpox without serious issues, the infection can lead to complications such as bacterial skin infections, pneumonia, and, in rare cases, encephalitis. Vaccination is a safe and effective way to reduce the risk of these complications, especially for adults, healthcare workers, and people at higher risk. Our pharmacists are here to ensure you and your family stay protected.
