Some pharmacies provide a service of issuing a pharmaceutical prescription for the vaccine and administering the vaccine. The information is contained next to the name of a specific pharmacy. It should be borne in mind that then there is no discount on the vaccine, as a pharmaceutical prescription can only be issued with a 100% payment. The price is then PLN 751.16

However, as announced by the Ministry of Health, this is soon to change and the pharmacist will be able to issue a prescription for this drug at a discount, including free of charge for people 65+ (as in the case of pneumococcal vaccines).

At the moment, a prescription from a doctor is necessary to receive the vaccine at a discount.

The discount is available to people aged 18 and over with an increased risk of developing shingles, i.e. with: chronic heart disease, chronic lung disease, diabetes, chronic kidney failure, congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, generalized cancer, HIV infection, Hodgkin's disease, iatrogenic immunosuppression, leukemia, etc. Then the price for 1 dose of the vaccine is PLN 375.58.

Seniors (people aged 65 and older) receive the vaccine free of charge.
