Please soften the wax in the 5 days before your appointment

It's important that the wax is soft to make the procedure as comfortable and effective as possible. We recommend using medicated oil drops, or a spray such as Earol, once per day in the affected ear and repeat for 5 days. This can be purchased here at the pharmacy.

Microsuction earwax removal uses a vacuum to gently remove any excess wax from your ears. It’s one of the most effective services for cleaning your ears and is carried out by one of our trained professionals

Vaccination against rabies is advised if you're travelling to an area where you could get rabies, particularly if:
- you're staying for a month or more
- there's unlikely to be quick access to appropriate medical care
- you plan to do activities that could put you at increased risk of exposure to rabies, such as cycling or running

Rabies can be found in many parts of the world. GOV.UK provides a detailed list of countries that have rabies in domestic animals or wildlife.

Vaccination involves a course of 3 injections before you travel, usually given over a period of 28 days.

If you're bitten, licked or scratched by an animal in a country where rabies is a problem, further doses of rabies vaccine (with or without a special anti-rabies injection given around the wound) may be required as emergency treatment.

Rabies Vaccine (inactivated)

Vaccination against hepatitis B is recommended if you're travelling in parts of the world where hepatitis B is common, especially if you'll be doing activities that increase your risk of developing the infection.

Hepatitis B is spread through blood and body fluids. Things like having sex, injecting drugs or playing contact sports on your travels can increase your risk.

Anyone travelling for long periods or who's likely to need medical care while abroad is also at increased risk.

Hepatitis B is found worldwide, but it's more common in parts of:
- Sub-Saharan Africa
- Asia
- the Middle East
- Southern and Eastern Europe
- parts of South America

The hepatitis B vaccination generally involves a course of 3 injections. Depending on how quickly you need protection, these may be spread over a period as long as 6 months or as short as 3 weeks.

A combined hepatitis A and hepatitis B jab is also available if you're likely to be at risk of both these conditions while travelling.

There is now a vaccine available to prevent dengue fever called QDenga.

The course consists of two doses, given three months apart.

Suitable for individuals aged 4 years and above, who have had dengue infection in the past and who are:
-  Planning to travel to areas where there is a risk of dengue infection or areas with an ongoing outbreak of dengue.
or
-  Exposed to dengue virus through their work, for example, laboratory staff working with the virus. 
It is a live vaccination, and therefore it is not suitable for everyone.

It is too early to know how long protection will endure, but it is anticipated to be long-lasting. It provides protection against all four strains of the virus, and studies have shown it to be well-tolerated.

Dengue Fever

The vaccine is given as a drink. For adults, 2 doses (given 1 to 6 weeks apart) can provide protection for up to 2 years.

You need to have had both doses at least a week before travelling.

This vaccine is usually only recommended if either:

- you're travelling to an area where cholera is common and you'll be visiting remote places without access to medical care
- you're an aid or disaster relief worker going to an area where a cholera outbreak is likely.

This price is for both doses of the vaccine.

Please call the pharmacy to confirm vaccine availability for any appointments booked less than 72 hours in advance.

Cholera Vaccine

A combined vaccination that protects against diphtheria, polio and tetanus is routinely given to all children in the UK.

Further booster doses are usually only recommended if you're going to visit parts of the world where diphtheria, polio or tetanus is widespread and your last vaccination dose was more than 10 years ago.

Additional doses of the vaccination are given in a single 3-in-1 injection.

DPT (Diphtheria, Tetanus and Polio) Vaccine

Vaccination against hepatitis A is recommended if you're travelling to countries where there are poor levels of sanitation and hygiene, and hepatitis A is common.

You might need the hepatitis A vaccine if you're travelling to:
- Sub-Saharan and North Africa
- Asia
- the Middle East
- South and Central America
- Eastern Europe

The vaccination against hepatitis A is usually given as a single initial injection, with a second dose 6 to 12 months later. Two doses should protect you for at least 25 years.

You should preferably have the initial dose at least 2 weeks before you leave, although it can be given up to the day of your departure if needed.

Jabs that offer combined protection against hepatitis A and hepatitis B or typhoid are also available if you're likely to also be at risk of these conditions.

Please call the pharmacy to confirm vaccine availability for any appointments booked less than 72 hours in advance.

Hepatitis A Vaccine

Combined typhoid and hepatitis A vaccine, for people over 12 years old. 

You only need 1 dose of this vaccine before you travel.
Can be used to start a hepatitis A vaccine series. 

To have long-term immunity from hepatitis A, you need 2 doses of vaccine, which are given 6 months apart. If this vaccine is the first dose of your hepatitis A series, you need to come back 6 months later to get a second dose of hepatitis A vaccine. When you get the second dose of hepatitis A vaccine, your hepatitis A series is complete and no further boosters are recommended. Additional doses of hepatitis A vaccine will incur additional costs.

The typhoid part of the vaccine will protect you for 2 years from typhoid disease.​

Combined Hepatitis A and Typhoid vaccine

Vaccination against Japanese encephalitis is usually recommended if you're planning a long stay (usually at least a month) in a country where you could get the condition.

The vaccination consists of 2 injections, with the second dose given 28 days after the first.

Ideally, you need to have the second dose a week before you leave.

this vaccine is particularly important if:
- you're visiting during the rainy season or there's a year-round risk because of a tropical climate
- you're going to visit rural areas, such as rice fields or marshlands
- you'll be taking part in any activities that may increase your risk of becoming infected, such as cycling or camping
Japanese encephalitis is found throughout Asia and beyond. The area it's found in stretches from the western Pacific islands in the east, across to the borders of Pakistan in the west.

Japanese Encephalitis Vaccine

Vaccination against some types of meningococcal meningitis is usually recommended if you're travelling to areas at risk and your planned activities put you at higher risk – for example, if you're a long-term traveller who has close contact with the local population.

High-risk areas for meningococcal meningitis include:
- parts of Africa
- Saudi Arabia during the mass gatherings of Hajj or Umrah
All travellers to Saudi Arabia for the Hajj or Umrah pilgrimages are required to show proof of vaccination.

If travelling to a high-risk area, you should be vaccinated against meningococcal meningitis with a MenACWY vaccine, also known as the quadrivalent meningococcal meningitis vaccine.

This is a single injection that should be given 2 to 3 weeks before you travel.

You should have the MenACWY vaccine before travelling to high-risk areas, even if you had the meningitis C vaccine as a child.

Meningococcal Meningitis A, C, W135 & Y

The MMR vaccine that protects against measles, mumps and rubella is routinely given to all children in the UK.

You should make sure you and your children are up-to-date with routine vaccinations, including MMR, before travelling.

If you haven't been fully vaccinated against these conditions or you're not already immune, you should ask about MMR vaccination before you travel.

The MMR vaccine is given as 2 injections. These are usually given when a child is 3 years and 4 months old. But if vaccination has been missed previously, adults can have the doses 1 month apart.

MMR Vaccine

Vaccination against tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is usually recommended for anyone who plans to live or work in a high-risk area, or hike and camp in these areas during late spring or summer.

The ticks that cause TBE are mainly found in forested areas of central, eastern and northern Europe, although at-risk areas also include eastern Russia and some countries in east Asia, including some regions of China and Japan.

The vaccination requires a course of 3 injections for full protection. The second dose is given 1 to 3 months after the first and provides immunity for about a year.

A third dose, given 5 to 12 months after the second, provides immunity for up to 3 years.

The course can sometimes be accelerated if necessary. This involves 2 doses being given 2 weeks apart.

Booster doses of the vaccine are recommended every 3 years, if necessary.

Please call the pharmacy to confirm vaccine availability for any appointments booked less than 72 hours in advance.

Tick-Borne Encephalitis Vaccine

Vaccination against typhoid fever is recommended if you're travelling to parts of the world where the condition is common, particularly if you'll:
- have frequent or prolonged exposure to conditions where sanitation and food hygiene are likely to be poor
- be staying or working with local people

High-risk areas include:
- Africa
- parts of South and Southeast Asia
- parts of South and Central America
- Two main vaccines are available for typhoid fever in the UK. 

One is given as a single injection, and the other is given as 3 capsules to take on alternate days.

It's also possible to have a combined hepatitis A and typhoid jab.

Ideally, the typhoid vaccine should be given at least 1 month before you travel, but it can be given closer to your travel date if necessary.

Booster vaccinations are recommended every 3 years if you continue to be at risk of infection.
