Each dose is £220, so the full course is £440 - we order both doses for you at the same time to ensure availability of the second dose.** About Shingles Shingles is a condition caused by the reactivation of the chickenpox virus. Anyone who has had chickenpox at some point in their lives could potentially develop shingles, though it is far more prevalent in people over 50. People who develop shingles often complain of a headache followed by tiredness, fever and a general unwell feeling. A burning feeling on the body somewhere is common, and can sometimes be extreme. This pain later develops a rash on the upper body or head and neck area and around the eye, which turns into painful, fluid-filled blisters. Eventually, these blisters burst and become sores which will crust over and heal. Symptoms usually occur only on one side of the body. Most people recover but some continue to feel extreme pain in the areas of the rash that can last for months or even years. Treatments are available and vary from person to person depending on the severity of the symptoms. Medical advice should be sought within 72 hours of the rash occurring. The best solution is prevention, and the vaccine can help protect you.
