FAQS
Why do I need a travel consultation before my trip?
A travel consultation is essential to assess your health needs based on your travel destination. Our certified pharmacists can provide personalised advice, necessary vaccinations, and health precautions to protect you from potential health risks specific to your travel itinerary.
What travel vaccinations do I need for my destination?
The required vaccinations depend on your travel destination. Common travel vaccines include Hepatitis A and B, Typhoid, Yellow Fever, Japanese Encephalitis, and Rabies. During your consultation, our pharmacists will recommend the appropriate vaccinations based on your travel plans and health history.
How far in advance should I schedule my travel consultation?
It’s best to schedule your travel consultation at least 4-6 weeks before your departure. This allows enough time for any necessary vaccinations to take effect and for you to receive comprehensive health advice tailored to your trip.
