Yes - pharmacist immunisers at Blakes Pharmacy can administer the typhoid vaccine, commonly recommended for travellers to higher-risk destinations.

Can I get a typhoid vaccination at the pharmacy?

Typhoid Vaccination

Typhoid Vaccination Icon


A vaccination that helps reduce the risk of typhoid fever, a bacterial infection spread through contaminated food and water.


Key benefits:

  • Helps reduce your risk of typhoid fever while travelling
  • Convenient access ahead of your trip
  • Administered by a trained, authorised pharmacist immuniser

What is the Typhoid Vaccination?

This service may be suitable if you:

  • Are travelling to a destination where typhoid risk is higher

Who May Benefit from Typhoid Vaccination?

Typhoid vaccination is not covered by the National Immunisation Program for most travellers, and ideally should be given a few weeks before departure for full protection to develop. 


It provides partial protection, so safe food and water practices while travelling remain important. 


Common side effects include soreness at the injection site. 


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

Important Information

Before Your Vaccination

Be prepared to discuss:

  • Your travel destination and departure date
  • Any previous typhoid vaccination
  • Any current health conditions or medicines


During Your Vaccination

Your pharmacist will review your travel plans to confirm timing, ideally a few weeks before you depart.

What to Expect During Your Visit

How soon before travel should I get vaccinated?

Ideally a few weeks before departure for the vaccine to take full effect.


Does this protect me completely from typhoid?

No vaccine offers complete protection — safe food and water practices while travelling remain important too.


Can I get this alongside other travel vaccines?

Ask about a broader pre-travel consultation if you need several vaccines before departure.
