The Meningitis B vaccine helps protect against invasive disease caused by Neisseria meningitidis group B. It is recommended for certain age groups, high-risk individuals, and travellers to specific regions. The vaccine is given as a course of injections, with timing varying by age and clinical circumstances. Common side effects are usually mild and short-lived, such as soreness at the injection site, low-grade fever, and fatigue. Our pharmacists provide pre-vaccination advice, assess suitability, and schedule follow-up doses to ensure effective protection.
