Keeping you and your family healthy

Immunization is an important part of keeping you and your family healthy. Vaccines are responsible for preventing many infectious diseases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), vaccines prevent more than two million deaths per year around the world.

Vaccination services are available in Drug Shoppe Pharmacy and are provided by our pharmacist who have received the required theoretical and practical training. Having your pharmacist administer your vaccine, such as a flu shot, is convenient and often no appointment is required. In many circumstances, there is no additional cost for this service as the provincial health plan covers the cost.

Remember: Vaccinations not only protect you but also indirectly protects everyone around you.

Don't hesitate to talk to your pharmacist, who is dedicated to making sure you stay healthy.

What are some reasons to get immunized?

  • Immunizations protect you or your child from dangerous diseases.

  • They help reduce the spread of disease to others.

  • They are often needed for entrance into school or daycare. And they may be needed for employment or for travel to another country.

  • The risk of getting a disease is much greater than the risk of having a serious reaction to the vaccine.

  • When immunization rates drop below a certain level, preventable diseases show up again. Often these diseases are hard to treat.

If you are a woman who is planning to get pregnant, talk to your doctor about what immunizations you have had and what you may need to protect your baby. And if you live with a pregnant woman, make sure your vaccines are up-to-date.

Traveling to other countries may be another reason to get immunized. Talk with your doctor at least 6 weeks before you leave, to see if you need any shots or other medicines.
