Typhoid Vaccination: What you should know

Typhoid fever is a bacterial infection caused by Salmonella Typhi. It spreads through contaminated food and water and is more common in parts of Asia, Africa, Central and South America.

Travellers visiting higher‑risk regions are advised to consider the typhoid vaccine as part of their travel health preparation. Vaccination significantly reduces your risk of infection and forms an important part of safe travel planning.

At Ryders Chemist in Formby, we provide professional travel consultations and safe administration of the typhoid vaccine in a private clinical setting.

  • Are travelling to countries where typhoid is common
  • Are staying with friends or relatives in rural areas
  • Plan extended travel or backpacking trips

Our pharmacist will assess your destination, duration of travel and medical history before recommending vaccination.

Advised to use this local Pharmacy by the Nurse at my GP Practice, for vaccinations in preparation for a trip to Uzbekistan. I can't fault my experience. Best of all was the skill in issuing vaccine painlessly. I barely knew it had been done. The Pharmacist was informative and helpful ...

Both my husband and I visit Ryders Chemist for our vaccinations because, unlike our doctor, they do both Covid and flu vaccinations. They are so lovely and helpful, pleasant and courteous. I wish that the gentleman attending to us was our GP! We would highly recommend anyone to go there ...

Simply excellent service. Great service on vaccinations at the start of 2024 ahead of New Zealand and Australia, then the final booster in February 2025. Friendly, knowledgeable service from Farakh, who is the centre of excellence in the pharmacy. The developing vaccination service is a great asset to the area.
