Before and after your vaccination
Before
Tell our doctor if you:
- are pregnant, may be pregnant or are breastfeeding
- have had a reaction to a vaccine before, or have any allergies
- have a weakened immune system, or take medicines that affect it
- are unwell with a fever on the day (we may suggest waiting until you're better)
Bring any previous vaccination records, or check them on HealthHub.
After
Please wait in the clinic for about 15 minutes after your vaccination.
Most side effects are mild and pass within a day or two:
- a sore, red or swollen arm where the injection was given
- mild fever, tiredness, headache or aching muscles
Seek help straight away for difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, or a fast heartbeat. Call 995 in an emergency.
Vaccination FAQs
Do I need an appointment?
We recommend booking on WhatsApp so we can make sure your vaccine is in stock.
Can I use MediSave for vaccinations?
Yes, for vaccines on the national schedule if you're in an eligible group. Our team will check for you.
Can I have more than one vaccine on the same day?
Often yes. Many vaccines, including flu and COVID-19, can be given at the same visit. Our doctor will advise you.
When should I get my flu vaccine?
Once a year. Flu circulates all year round in Singapore, and the vaccine is updated regularly to match the strains going around.
Can you run a flu vaccination drive at our workplace?
Yes. We run on-site flu vaccination drives for companies. See corporate health services or message us on WhatsApp with your headcount and preferred date.
Will my vaccination be recorded?
Yes. We update the National Immunisation Registry, so your records show on HealthHub.
