After Your Flu Vaccination
The quadrivalent flu vaccine has a stellar safety record. Most patients encounter either no side effects or light, localised physical reactions that completely settle within 24 to 48 hours.
Common side-effects you might notice:
- Mild arm soreness near injection spot
- Slight swelling or temporary redness
- A mild headache for a short period
- Slight fatigue or low energy
- Temporary body or muscle aches
- Slightly elevated temperature
Over-the-counter painkillers like paracetamol can alleviate discomfort. If you feel any reaction that concerns you, please feel free to ring our Leeds clinical desk on 0113 278 3976 at any time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who should get a flu jab?
Anyone can benefit from a flu vaccination, particularly older adults, pregnant women, people with long-term health conditions, frontline workers and those travelling abroad during flu season.
When should I get my flu jab?
It's best to have your vaccination before flu cases begin to rise, although getting vaccinated later in the season can still provide valuable protection.
Can I get a flu jab before travelling?
Yes. If you're travelling during flu season, getting vaccinated before you fly can help reduce your risk of becoming ill while away.
Can the flu vaccine give me flu?
No. The flu vaccine cannot cause influenza. Some people may experience mild side effects such as soreness or tiredness, but these usually pass quickly.
How long does the appointment take?
Most appointments take around 10–15 minutes, with the vaccination itself taking only a few moments.
Do I need a GP referral?
No. You can book directly with Star Pharmacy without seeing your GP first.
Can I book for my family?
Yes. Our team can advise on appointments for eligible family members and answer any questions before your visit.
Is the flu vaccine safe?
Yes. Flu vaccines used in the UK are thoroughly tested and are recommended each year to help protect against circulating strains of seasonal influenza.
