Bexsero — Cover Against MenB

Meningitis B is a bacterial infection that can cause meningitis and blood poisoning (septicaemia). It can develop within hours and be life-threatening, and survivors can be left with lasting effects. The Bexsero vaccine protects against meningococcal group B, the most common cause of bacterial meningitis in the UK.

  • From 2 Months Old

    Babies and young children are at highest risk. Bexsero can be given from 2 months of age.

  • Teens & Students Too

    There's a second peak in older teenagers and students, who may also want protection.

  • Single Dose for Most

    Given as one injection into the upper arm for adults and older children. Babies follow a different schedule — our pharmacist will advise.

KNOW THE FACTS

What is Meningitis B?

A serious infection that can move quickly

Baby — meningitis B is most common in young children

Bacterial Infection

Meningitis B is caused by meningococcal group B bacteria, which can inflame the lining of the brain and cause blood poisoning.

Develops Quickly

Symptoms can appear and worsen within hours. Early treatment is vital, which is why prevention matters.

Highest Risk: Under-5s & Teens

Most common in children under 5, with a second peak in teenagers and young adults aged 15–24, especially students.

Serious Outcomes

It can be life-threatening, and some survivors are left with hearing loss, scarring or other long-term effects.

KNOW THE SIGNS

A Rash That Doesn't Fade

Warning signs include fever, a severe headache, a stiff neck, dislike of bright light and a rash that does not fade when pressed with a glass. In babies, look for a high-pitched cry, floppiness or refusing feeds. If you suspect meningitis, seek urgent medical help — vaccination is the best prevention.

MENINGITIS B FAQs

Common Questions

For adults and older children it's usually a single dose. Babies need more doses on a set schedule — our pharmacist will confirm what's right for you at your appointment.

No. Bexsero protects against meningococcal group B. MenACWY protects against four different groups (A, C, W and Y). Many people choose to have both for broader cover.

Usually mild — a sore leg or arm, and a short-lived fever which is common in babies. Serious reactions are very rare.
