Upon suspicion of a shingles infection, a short consultation with our knowledgeable pharmacists is all it takes to initiate the treatment process. Following the criteria outlined by NICE CKS, our pharmacists assess the condition within 72 hours of rash onset. If shingles is confirmed, we immediately supply antiviral medication, such as aciclovir, to kickstart the healing process.

Criteria for Inclusion

Our Shingles Treatment in Harrow is tailored for adults aged 18 years and over, adhering to specific criteria set by NICE CKS. These include a timely diagnosis within 72 hours of rash onset and additional factors such as non-truncal involvement, moderate or severe pain, moderate or severe rash, or age over 50 years.
