A vaccination that helps protect against RSV, a respiratory virus that can cause serious illness in some groups.

Key benefits:

• Helps protect against a virus that can cause serious illness
• Recommended for older adults and pregnant women
• Convenient access without a GP visit

This service may be suitable if you:

• Are older adults, per current guidance
• Are pregnant and at the recommended stage for RSV vaccination

RSV vaccination is recommended for older adults and for pregnant women at a specific stage of pregnancy, under current guidance — your pharmacist or obstetric care provider can confirm the recommended timing if this applies to you. 

Common side effects include soreness at the injection site. 

Ask your pharmacist for the relevant Consumer Medicines Information (CMI) for full details.

Before Your Vaccination

Be prepared to discuss:

• Your age, or whether you are pregnant
• The stage of your pregnancy, if applicable
• Any previous reactions to this vaccine

During Your Vaccination

Your pharmacist will confirm your eligibility based on your age or, if pregnant, the recommended stage of pregnancy for this vaccine.

You’ll then receive the injection, with a brief monitoring period afterward.

Am I eligible if I’m pregnant?

RSV vaccination is recommended for pregnant women at a specific stage of pregnancy under current guidance — your pharmacist or GP can advise on timing.

Can I get this at the same time as my flu vaccine?

In many cases yes — ask your pharmacist, as this depends on current guidance and your individual health.

Who else is it recommended for?

Primarily older adults — ask your pharmacist if you’re unsure whether you qualify.
