The Internal Medicine department at Jupiter Hospital, Pune, is committed to your preventive healthcare. They offer a comprehensive range of vaccines to shield you from various diseases. Here's a look at some key vaccinations available at our centre:

1. Influenza Vaccine: This yearly vaccine protects against seasonal flu strains. It's recommended for adults and children above 6 months of age. A single dose is sufficient for most healthy individuals; however, children under 5 might require two doses depending on their vaccination history.
2. Pneumococcal Vaccines (PCV13 & PPSV23): These vaccines target pneumococcal bacteria, a major cause of pneumonia. PCV13 is particularly recommended for: children aged 2 months to 5 years, and adults aged 65 and above. PPSV23 is geared towards adults with certain medical conditions, smokers, and those above 50 years old. Both vaccines usually require a single dose, but your doctor might recommend a follow-up dose in specific cases.
3. Tdap Vaccine: This combination vaccine safeguards against Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis (Whooping Cough). Adolescents aged 11-18 years should get a Tdap booster dose, as childhood DTaP protection can weaken over time. Adults should also consider a Tdap booster, especially if they haven't received one in the past ten years or will be around infants.
4. Meningococcal Vaccine: This vaccine protects against Meningitis caused by the N Meningitidis Bacteria. Vaccination recommendations depend on age, travel plans, and other risk factors. Talk to your doctor at Jupiter Hospital to determine if you need this vaccine.
5. Varicella Zoster Vaccine: This vaccine protects against Chickenpox. It's usually recommended for children who haven't had chickenpox and adults who lack immunity.
6. Herpes Zoster Vaccine: This vaccine helps prevent Shingles; a painful rash caused by the reactivation of the Varicella-Zoster virus (chickenpox virus). It's recommended for adults aged 50 and above.
7. MMR Vaccine: This vaccine provides protection against Measles, Mumps, and Rubella. Two doses are typically recommended for children according to the national immunization schedule.
