The Center of Disease Contorl recommends Zostavax (shingles vaccine) for use in people 60 years old and older to prevent shingles. It is a one time vaccination and lasts about 6 years but may last longer.
For more information regarding the shingles vaccination, please visit the Center of Disease Controls Website at http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd-vac/shingles/vac-faqs.htm.
I hope this helps. How old are you? Is there a reason you were interested in the vaccine?
