CAN I GET A COVID-19 VACCINE IN YOUR PHARMACY?
Unfortunately no. You cannot get a COVID-19 vaccine in the pharmacy. There is a Covid-19 vaccination centre on 1st Ave in Tauranga but it is advised to call first to book in on 0800 829 000 . For more information and vaccination roll out plans click here.
WHAT VACCINATIONS  CAN I GET IN YOUR PHARMACY?
We vaccinate for Flu, Boostrix for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough) and MMR for measles, mumps and rubella.
buccaline and why is it a pharmacist only medication?
Buccaline is used to boost the body's immune system against bacterial infection during the cold & flu season. While it will not prevent cold or flu, it reduces the risk of complications that often arise when bacterial infections worsen viral infections. Do not buy Buccaline if you are unwell. Buccaline is not a replacement for a flu vaccine.
