Can I get a Meningococcal B vaccination at Harpers Pharmacy?
Meningococcal B Vaccination
A vaccination that helps protect against meningococcal B, one of the strains not covered by the ACWY vaccine.
Key benefits:
- Helps protect against a strain not covered by the ACWY vaccine
- Increasingly funded or available across Australian states
- Convenient local access where eligible
What is the Meningococcal B Vaccination?
This service may be suitable if you:
- Fall within an age group eligible for a funded dose in your state
- Would like added protection against a strain not covered by the ACWY vaccine
Who May Benefit from Meningococcal B Vaccination?
Meningococcal B vaccination funding and eligibility criteria differ across Australian states and territories more than most other vaccines on this list — always confirm your current local eligibility with your pharmacist rather than assuming national consistency.
Common side effects include soreness at the injection site, and sometimes mild fever in younger children.
Ask your pharmacist for the relevant Consumer Medicines Information (CMI) for full details.
Important Information
Be prepared to discuss:
- Your age and vaccination history
- Your state or territory, since funding varies
- Any previous reactions to this vaccine
Your pharmacist will confirm your eligibility for a funded dose, since this varies more by state than most other vaccines.
You’ll then receive the injection, with a brief monitoring period afterward.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Is this covered by the National Immunisation Program?
This depends on your state and age group - ask Harpers Pharmacy for current details.
Is this the same as Meningococcal ACWY?
No - it protects against a different strain. Some people choose to have both.
How many doses do I need?
This depends on your age at the first dose - your pharmacist will advise.
