Travel Clinic in Luton – Safe, Reliable Travel Vaccinations at Bushmead Pharmacy

Travelling abroad offers new experiences, cultures, and adventures. But many destinations also carry health risks that differ from those in the UK. At Bushmead Pharmacy in Luton, our Travel Clinic provides everything you need to stay healthy and safe wherever you are heading. From essential vaccinations and malaria prevention to expert health advice tailored to your destination, we ensure you travel with confidence and peace of mind.

Our dedicated team offers professional, friendly and personalised consultations, ensuring you receive the right protection at the right time. Whether you are travelling for a holiday, work, pilgrimage, volunteering, or backpacking, our Travel Clinic is here to support your journey every step of the way.

Why You Need a Travel Clinic Before Going Abroad

Many countries have infectious diseases that are rare or absent in the UK. Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to protect yourself from serious infections. In many destinations, travel vaccinations are strongly recommended. In others, such as Yellow Fever countries, they may even be mandatory for entry.

By choosing our Travel Clinic in Luton, you gain:

• Up-to-date advice based on NHS Fit for Travel and World Health Organization guidance

• A full review of your medical history, itinerary, and risk factors

• All essential vaccinations in one place

• Malaria tablets and bite-prevention advice

• A clear plan tailored to your travel dates

Travelling without proper protection can lead to illness, cancelled trips, costly medical bills abroad, and long-term complications. Our clinic ensures you avoid unnecessary risks.

What Travel Vaccines We Offer

We stock a full range of travel vaccinations, including:

Hepatitis A

Protects against a viral infection spread through contaminated food or water. Common in Asia, Africa, and South America.

Hepatitis B

Recommended for travellers staying long-term, working in healthcare, or engaging in activities with potential blood exposure.

Typhoid

Crucial for destinations with poor sanitation. Spread through food and water.

Tetanus, Diphtheria & Polio (Td/IPV)

Important for all travellers. Boosters required every 10 years.

Cholera

Recommended for humanitarian workers, backpackers, and those visiting high-risk regions.

Rabies

Vital for long-stay trips, remote travel, animal-facing work, and high-risk countries throughout Asia, Africa, and Central America.

Yellow Fever

Required for entry into many African and South American countries. A certificate will be issued after vaccination.

MMR

Ensures protection against measles, mumps, and rubella – outbreaks still occur in many countries.

If your destination requires other specialist vaccines, we will guide you accordingly.

Malaria Prevention

Malaria remains one of the biggest risks to UK travellers visiting Africa, Asia and South America. It can be severe and sometimes life-threatening, so prevention is essential.

At Bushmead Pharmacy, we provide:

• Prescription-strength malaria tablets

• Country-specific advice

• Mosquito-bite prevention guidance

• Travel packs with repellents and protective items

We’ll recommend medication such as Atovaquone/Proguanil, Doxycycline, or Mefloquine depending on your destination and health background.

Your Travel Health Consultation – What to Expect

Our Travel Clinic is designed to make the process simple, supportive, and stress-free. During your appointment:

1. Travel Risk Assessment

We review your itinerary, destinations, length of stay, type of travel, pre-existing conditions, vaccination history and risks.

2. Personalised Recommendations

We outline exactly which vaccines, medications, and precautions are required.

3. Vaccination Administration

Many vaccines can be given during the same appointment.

4. Travel Health Advice

We cover food safety, water hygiene, sun exposure, altitude sickness, animal bites, and more.

5. Follow-Up Plan

Some vaccines need boosters — we schedule these for you and send reminders.

We make sure you leave fully protected and well-informed.

When Should You Visit a Travel Clinic?

Ideally 6–8 weeks before travelling, as some vaccines require multiple doses or time to take effect.
However, if you are travelling soon, we can still help.

Even last-minute travellers benefit from visiting our clinic — many vaccines and malaria medications can still be started close to departure.
