ZOSTAVAX works best against Shingles if you get vaccinated while you are in your sixties. In fact, once you reach age 60, the sooner you get vaccinated, the better your chances of protecting yourself from Shingles. ZOSTAVAX is given as a single shot. ZOSTAVAX cannot be used to treat Shingles, or the nerve pain that may follow Shingles, once you have it. Talk to your health care provider to see if ZOSTAVAX is right for you.
