Book AppointmentUnderstanding Meningitis B
Meningitis is an infection of the protective membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. It can be caused by different viruses and bacteria. Meningitis B, often shortened to MenB, is caused by one particular group of meningococcal bacteria.
Meningitis can be serious, which is why many people want to understand the vaccines available. If you are ever worried that someone may have meningitis, do not wait for a vaccination appointment. Get urgent medical help straight away.
Is the vaccine right for me?
Whether you can have the Meningitis B vaccine, and how it is provided, depends on your age, your health and current guidance. We do not want you to rely on guesswork, so our pharmacist will check suitability with you before any vaccine is given and explain the reasons behind their advice.

After your vaccination, make a note of the date and the vaccine you received. This makes it easier to keep track if a further dose is recommended and to share the information with your GP or other healthcare professionals when needed.
