Flu Vaccination for Children from 6 months to 15 years

25 590 Ft

Vaccination against flu is vital for babies and small children as they’re at higher risk for severe complications. Children between the ages of 6 months and 15 years should see a pediatrician before getting the flu shot, which ensures that the vaccination is safe and effective.

We recommend renewing the flu shot annually because only the most recent vaccination protects from the anticipated strains of the influenza virus. The vaccination price includes the Vaxigrip Tetra vaccine, which protects from four different influenza A and B virus strains and is updated annually based on WHO’s recommendations.

Children under nine years old who haven’t been vaccinated need two doses administered four weeks apart, and each visit should be paid separately.

Please note that the new flu vaccines, effective from the autumn 2024 season, are expected to arrive in our clinic in mid-to-late October. If you would like to get vaccinated as soon as possible, please register using the form on our website, and we will let you know when they become available.
