Meningitis B vaccination
Meningitis B spreads quickly through close contact and can have severe, sometimes fatal consequences. Our vaccination service helps protect you wherever you are, including in nurseries, schools, and universities.
-
Most people between 2 - 64 years old who are not eligible for the free NHS schedule, or who prefer to access it privately, can safely receive the MenB vaccine.
-
When you arrive, a trained clinician will carry out a short consultation to confirm the vaccine is suitable for you. They will ask about your medical history, allergies, and any current medications.
Once everything is confirmed, the vaccine will be given as a quick injection, usually into the upper arm.
Afterward, you’ll be asked to stay in the pharmacy for around 15 minutes so we can make sure you feel well before leaving.
We’ll also provide aftercare advice and answer any questions you may have about the vaccination.
