What Is the MenB Vaccine?
The MenB vaccine is designed to help protect against meningococcal group B bacteria. MenB is one of the main causes of meningococcal disease and can lead to meningitis or sepsis.
The vaccine is part of the NHS childhood vaccination schedule for babies, but some patients may still want to discuss private MenB vaccination or additional vaccine advice depending on their age, risk, vaccination history or travel/study circumstances.
The pharmacist can explain whether the service may be suitable and whether you should access vaccination through the NHS, a GP, a pharmacy booking route or a private appointment.
Who May Consider the MenB Vaccine?
The MenB vaccine may be relevant for different groups of patients, depending on age, risk and eligibility.
This service may be suitable if you:
- Want private MenB vaccine advice

MenB Vaccine for Babies and Children
The MenB vaccine is routinely offered to babies as part of the NHS vaccination schedule. NHS guidance says the vaccine is given to children at 8 weeks, 12 weeks and 1 year old to help protect against meningococcal group B bacteria.
If you are unsure whether your child has had their routine MenB vaccines, you can check your child’s red book, contact your GP surgery or ask a healthcare professional for advice.
Fullwell Pharmacy can provide private MenB vaccine advice where appropriate, but some children may be better supported through their GP or NHS vaccination service depending on age and eligibility.
MenB Vaccine for Young People and Students
