Travel Health Consultations in Calgary: Stay Healthy Before You Fly
Whether you’re planning a beach vacation, a business trip, or a family visit overseas, your health should travel with you. Calgary West Pharmacy offers comprehensive travel health consultations so you’re protected—no matter where your journey takes you.
“Prescriptions, vaccines, and prevention advice—handled in one visit.”
Why You Need a Travel Health Consultation
Different destinations carry different health risks. A quick stop at your local pharmacy can help you avoid illnesses that could derail your trip. During your consultation, our pharmacists will:
- Review your travel itinerary and medical history
- Recommend destination-specific vaccinations and preventive medications
- Advise on food, water, and mosquito-borne illness prevention
- Discuss traveller’s diarrhea, malaria, altitude sickness, and motion sickness
- Ensure your routine immunizations are up to date
Travel Vaccines Available at Calgary West Pharmacy
- Hepatitis A and B
- Typhoid
- Traveller’s diarrhea (Dukoral®)
- Yellow Fever (available at select authorized sites—we’ll help you find one)
- Japanese Encephalitis
- Rabies (pre-exposure)
- Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis (Tdap booster)
- Influenza and COVID-19 boosters
We’ll determine exactly what you need based on your destination, length of stay, and type of travel.
When Should You Book?
Ideally, schedule your consultation 4–6 weeks before departure for vaccine series and optimal protection. Travelling last-minute? We can still help—some vaccines and medications can be started just days before you go.
