THE IMPACT OF SHINGLES

When considering vaccination, it’s important to consider how getting shingles could potentially impact you.

Shingles can cause pain that lasts for weeks and can be disruptive. Beyond the painful, itchy rash, some people experience complications that can lead to long-term health problems—the most common is postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), severe pain that can last for months or even years. SHINGRIX is not indicated to prevent complications from shingles, including PHN.
