Stay Protected This Season



Q1. When is the best time to get a flu vaccination in Canberra?


 The best time is before the flu season peaks - usually April to May in Australia. But vaccination is still worthwhile throughout the season. Visit Pharmacy Alliance Woden as soon as the current vaccine is available.


Q2. Do I need an appointment? 


Yes. Appointments are required for all vaccinations at Pharmacy Alliance Woden. Book online or contact us to find a convenient time. Walk-ins may be possible, but booking ahead means less waiting.


Q3. Are there side effects?


 Mild side effects can occur. These include soreness at the injection site, a slight headache, or mild fatigue. They usually pass within a day or two. Serious reactions are rare. Our pharmacists monitor you after your shot.


Q4. Can children get vaccinated at your pharmacy? 


Children aged five and over can get vaccinated at Pharmacy Alliance Woden. For children under five, please see your GP. They may need specific vaccine types and extra monitoring.


Q5. Will the flu shot stop me from getting the flu? 


The flu vaccine greatly reduces your risk of getting influenza. It also lowers the severity if you do catch it. No vaccine offers 100% protection. But the flu shot is still the most effective tool available each season.



Frequently Asked Questions

Tips for Getting Your Medical Certificate Quickly

Protecting Canberra's Community

When enough people get vaccinated, the flu spreads more slowly. This is called herd immunity. It helps protect people who can't receive the vaccine due to age or health conditions. Getting vaccinated at your local pharmacy is a simple way to help keep your community safe.


Expertise You Can Trust


Our pharmacists are trained to provide vaccination services. They also give expert advice on diabetes, heart health, and chronic disease. One visit can cover several aspects of your health. Pharmacy Alliance Woden has served the Canberra community for many years.


More Than Just a Flu Shot


We offer a full range of health services, including:


Blood Pressure Monitoring
Diabetes support via the NDSS
MedsChecks and Home Medicines Reviews
Heart Health Checks

If you manage a chronic condition, pair your flu shot with one of these checks. It's an easy way to stay on top of your health this season.


We also offer custom compounded medicines. Learn more: Best Compounding Pharmacy Canberra: Personalised Medicines & Expert Pharmacy Care


Convenient, Professional, and Affordable



Getting your flu shot at a pharmacy is simple. At Pharmacy Alliance Woden, a qualified pharmacist gives the vaccination in a private space. You don't need to wait weeks for a GP appointment. Appointments are required, so please book before you visit.



What to Expect During Your Visit



  1. A brief health check to confirm the vaccine is right for you
  2. The current season's flu vaccine, given by a trained pharmacist
  3. A short wait after the injection so we can make sure you feel well 
  4. Easy aftercare advice on managing any mild side effects 


Is the Flu Vaccine Free in Canberra? 


Under the National Immunisation Program (NIP), some Australians get the flu vaccine for free. This includes: 


  1. Adults over 65 
  2. Pregnant women 
  3. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people from six months of age 
  4. People with certain chronic health conditions 


Not covered under the NIP? The vaccine is still low-cost and easy to access at our Woden pharmacy.

How Flu Vaccination at a Pharmacy Works

The Flu Virus Changes Each Season

The influenza virus mutates every year. Health authorities study the circulating strains and update the vaccine to match. This means last year's flu shot may not protect you this season. Getting an updated flu vaccination each year gives you the strongest possible defence.

Who Is Most at Risk?

Anyone can catch the flu. But some people face a higher risk of serious complications:

  1. Adults aged 65 and over
  2. Children under five years of age
  3. Pregnant women and new mothers
  4. People with chronic conditions such as asthma, heart disease, or diabetes
  5. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
  6. Healthcare and frontline workers

If you or a family member is in one of these groups, annual vaccination is especially important. Talk to one of our pharmacists at Pharmacy Alliance Woden about your needs.

Why You Need a Flu Shot Every Year

Every year, influenza sweeps through Australian communities. It sends thousands of people to bed for days. For vulnerable groups, it can be far more serious. Getting your flu vaccination at a pharmacy in Canberra is one of the simplest steps you can take to protect yourself and the people around you.

At Pharmacy Alliance Woden, our trained pharmacists give flu vaccinations safely, conveniently, and affordably. No GP referral needed.
