Vaccines You Need to Update Right Now

vaccines-you-need-to-update-right-now

Many people think that babies, children, and college freshmen are the only ones who need to regularly update their vaccines. If you’re one of those people, RGVMEDS PHARMACY is telling you to stop what you’re doing and get your shots updated ASAP.

Here are some of the vaccines we recommend to people who drop by our Compounding Pharmacy in Texas:

  • Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine
  • Flu vaccine
  • Pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine
  • Tetanus vaccine
  • Pneumonia vaccine

The HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine was formerly recommended only to females under 26 years of age, but a new report from the CDC now also recommends the vaccine for boys between the ages of 11 and 21.

Don’t want to wait hours in a hospital? Don’t worry, you can drop by our Pharmacy for these shots. If you’re not sure about your vaccination history, make sure to talk to your primary care doctor.

Your doctor may suggest getting a blood test to check for signs of immunity to certain types of infections to help you figure out whether you need to update your shots immediately or if it can wait a few years.

Once you get the “green light” from your doctor, you can visit our Independent Pharmacy to get vaccinated. Soreness and some swelling are some of the common side effects of getting your shots. If you want, our Retail Pharmacy in Edinburg, Texas also has anti-inflammatory pain relievers in stock.
