Whooping cough vaccine

Hi all, Has anyone got the whooping cough vaccine? My consultant is recommending I get it this week. I rang my local pharmacy and they are getting it in for me tomorrow. I asked how much and they said roughy around €45/48. Does that sound about right?

I got mine at the GPs and I'm pretty sure it was €30....

I got it through GP a couple of weeks ago it was €45 administration fee with nurse included

I also got mine at the GP and it was €28

Thanks ladies! I rang my surgery and the said €40-€50 is about right. I'm baffled as to how there is such variation! Ortees, I see you are on the home stretch!! Hope you are well x

My doc said he was only charging what they paid for it. €30.

some docs charge extra if u visit outside ur 6 free antenatal visits, mine does, I had my visit, asked about vaccine, she said she'd order it in, arrived 2 days later, she charged me 25 euro for vaccine and then for a visit, not the full 60 euro, can't remember exactly how much, I was raging.

Some GPs out there really take the pi$$ with their extra charges. My GP apologised for even having to charge me the cost if the vaccine but said that despite the HSE recommending it they don't cover the cost of it.

No one has ever mentioned the whooping cough vaccine to me...
