HPV vaccine in Lisbon

V
#1

Hello,

My doctor prescribed to get HPV vaccine 💉

I can get it in a farmacy, although I am trying to explore if Centro de Saude can provide it for free either my Medis insurance would compensate HPV vaccine cost.


Let me know please!

Cheers

Hi @Valentina,

The HPV vaccine is included in the National Vaccination Programme for adolescents between the ages of 10 and 17 (‘limit age’). If your age is higher or you are not registered with the NHS (even with age lower 17), the vaccine will have to be paid by yourself or by your health insurance.
