Is it possible to be vaccinated again with Shingrix?
Good afternoon, please tell me it is possible to re-vaccinate Shingrix? If there was already a vaccination a few years ago, a few years later, shingles reappeared.

Information in the summary of product characteristics:
"The need for booster doses after primary vaccination has not been determined."
"The duration of protection beyond 4 years is currently under investigation."
In the fourth year after vaccination, the effectiveness of the Shingrix vaccine is estimated to be about 90%.
In the light of the above information, it is impossible to give a clear answer to the question of the possibility of using a booster dose. The decision on whether to resume prophylaxis should be made by a physician experienced in administering the preparation to his patients.
In people who had shingles in the past, the vaccine reduced pain and complications if they developed the disease after vaccination.
