Chickenpox (Varicella) Immunisation Clinic
Chickenpox is a highly contagious viral infection that causes an itchy, blister-like rash. While often a standard childhood illness, it can cause severe health complications in adults, pregnant individuals, and those with compromised immune systems. Chana Chemist offers a comprehensive preventative immunization service.
Our Vaccination Protocols
We provide two separate pathways to accommodate families and high-risk individuals safely:
- Private Two-Dose Course: Available for children and adults who want to avoid the discomfort of the virus and protect against severe adult cases or family transmission. This is a highly effective option as chickenpox is not part of the routine UK childhood vaccination schedule.
- NHS Special Exceptions: Provided free of charge strictly to individuals who are in close regular contact with severely immunosuppressed patients, ensuring specialized protective rings of immunity.
Full Course Administration
The chickenpox vaccine requires a full course of two distinct doses, spaced several weeks apart, to secure maximum long-term clinical protection. Our clinical pharmacists manage the scheduling of both dates to guarantee your course is completed accurately and effectively.
With 11 branches across London, expert care is always just around the corner.

The chickenpox immunization requires exactly two doses to deliver full, long-term protection. The second dose is normally scheduled between 4 to 8 weeks after the initial injection, depending on the patient's age and clinical profile.
Our private chickenpox vaccination service can safely be administered to children starting from 12 months of age upward. It is an excellent choice for parents looking to protect their children prior to entering nurseries or primary schools.
No vaccine is 100% effective, but the chickenpox vaccine provides excellent protection. If a vaccinated individual does happen to contract the virus later in life, the symptoms are typically incredibly mild, with fewer spots, lower fevers, and a much faster recovery period.
