Why HPV vaccination matters
HPV is common and can cause several cancers as well as genital warts. Vaccination provides the greatest benefit before exposure, but people who were not vaccinated through a routine program may still benefit.
Protection at every stage

What to know
Who can ask
HPV vaccination is not only a school-age topic. Adolescents and adults can ask for a review of prior doses, current recommendations and whether vaccination may be appropriate for them.
Schedule and coverage
The recommended schedule depends on age, immune status and vaccination history. Publicly funded eligibility and private insurance coverage can change, so the pharmacy will confirm current details.
