Good to know
- Vaccine
- Shingrix (recombinant, adjuvanted)
- Course
- 2 doses, 2–6 months apart
- Recommended from
- Age 50, earlier if immunosuppressed
- Note
- Commonly causes 1–2 days of arm soreness and fatigue
Who is this for?
Adults over 50, and immunosuppressed adults of any age — Shingrix is not a live vaccine, so it suits them where the older vaccine did not.
Booking options & clinic offers
Nurse home visits are available across Bangkok for a 600 THB nursing fee and in 23 further provinces for 700–1,500 THB; home bookings start at 07:00. Free cancellation or rescheduling up to 24 hours before an appointment.
Preparation required
Expect a sore arm and possibly a day of fatigue or aches — avoid scheduling before anything demanding. Complete both doses; one alone gives materially less protection.
