Typhoid Vaccination – Stay Protected Before You Travel

Typhoid fever remains common where clean water and sanitation are poor. Our clinic offers safe, effective typhoid vaccines and expert guidance for every traveller's needs.

What Is Typhoid Fever?

Typhoid fever is a bacterial infection caused by Salmonella Typhi. It spreads through contaminated food and water, making it a particular risk in South Asia, Africa, and parts of South America.

Symptoms may include high fever, stomach pain, headaches, and diarrhoea. Without treatment, typhoid can be life-threatening. Prevention through the typhoid fever vaccine is the most reliable way to protect yourself.

Types of Typhoid Vaccines

In the UK, there are a few options for typhoid vaccination:

Typhoid Injection

A single injection that protects for around 3 years.

3 Years Protection
Oral Vaccine

Taken over several days, effective for about 5 years.

5 Years Protection

Both are safe and effective. Our clinicians will advise on the best choice for your travel plans and health needs.

How Long Does the Typhoid Vaccine Last?

A common question is, "Typhoid vaccine, how long does it last?"

The injection vaccine protects for 3 years.

The oral vaccine can last up to 5 years.

If you continue to travel to high-risk areas, you'll need a booster once protection expires.

Typhoid Vaccine Side Effects

Like all vaccines, the typhoid fever vaccine may cause mild reactions. Typical typhoid vaccine side effects include:

Redness or soreness at the injection site
Low-grade fever
Headache or tiredness
Stomach upset or nausea (more common with the oral vaccine)

Some travellers report a mild typhoid vaccine reaction, such as stomach upset or nausea (more common with the oral vaccine). These effects are temporary and usually resolve within a day or two.

Serious side effects of the typhoid vaccine are extremely rare. Our team will review your medical history to ensure it's safe for you.

Typhoid Vaccine Cost

Many people search for typhoid fever vaccine cost or pricing for the typhoid vaccine UK. Costs vary by clinic and whether you choose the injection or oral option.

Who Should Get the Typhoid Vaccination?

The vaccination for typhoid is strongly recommended if you are:

Travelling to South Asia, Africa, or Latin America
Visiting family or staying for extended periods in high-risk regions
Working in healthcare, aid, or humanitarian projects abroad
Backpacking or travelling off the beaten path

Even short trips to affected areas can carry risk, so it's worth getting vaccinated before you go.
