Is there anyone who should not have the 4CMenB vaccine?

Very few people cannot have the 4CMenB vaccine. You should not have the vaccine if you have had a serious (life-threatening) reaction to: 

  • a previous dose of the vaccine, or 
  • any ingredient in the vaccine.  

Speak to the person giving you the vaccine if you have had a serious allergic reaction to the vaccine or its ingredients in the past. 

If you have a bleeding disorder, or a weakened immune system, speak to your doctor or clinic nurse before you have the vaccine.
