Chickenpox

The chickenpox vaccine protects against the varicella zoster virus that causes chickenpox. The chickenpox vaccine is not part of the routine childhood vaccination schedule.  Two doses are recommended as this gives an even better immune response. There is a charge for this vaccination (£130 for full course).

Shingles vaccination

You are eligible for the vaccination if you are aged 70 or 78 years old.

Vitamin B12 – Folate Deficiency Anaemia

Vitamin B12 deficiency anaemia is usually treated with injections of vitamin B12, in a form called hydroxocobalamin. At first, you will have these injections frequently until your symptoms have started improving. These injections are given by the practice nurse.

Whooping Cough

You can have this vaccination from 16 weeks, during pregnancy to protect you and your baby.
