Herpes zoster, also known as shingles, is a disease caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox. The risk of developing herpes zoster increases with age as the immune system naturally weakens.
This disease is characterized by a painful blistering rash that may cause burning, stinging, or sharp pain. In some individuals, the pain can persist for months even after the rash has healed, a condition known as postherpetic neuralgia. The good news is that herpes zoster can be prevented through vaccination.
Shingrix vaccine is recommended for adults aged 50 years and older, as well as individuals aged 18 years and above who are at increased risk or have conditions that weaken the immune system. The vaccine is administered in two doses, given 2–6 months apart, to provide optimal protection against herpes zoster and its complications.
National Hospital offers Herpes Zoster (Shingrix) vaccination services at a price of IDR 3,000,000 for a single dose or IDR 5,750,000 for the complete two-dose package. Vaccinations are administered by qualified healthcare professionals in a safe and comfortable environment, following established medical standards.
Protect yourself and your loved ones from the risk of herpes zoster before the disease occurs. For more information about vaccination or to schedule a consultation, please contact National Hospital. After all, prevention is always better than cure, especially when it comes to maintaining a good quality of life as we age.
