WHAT BEXSERO IS USED FOR BEXSERO is a meningococcal group B vaccine. BEXSERO is given to individuals from 2 months of age and older to help protect against disease caused by bacteria called Neisseria meningitidis group B. These bacteria can cause serious, and sometimes life-threatening, infections such as meningitis (inflammation of the covering of the brain and spinal cord) and sepsis (blood poisoning). The vaccine works by specifically stimulating the body's natural defense system of the vaccinated person. This results in protection against this disease. The use of this vaccine should be in accordance with the official recommendations. PLEASE NOTE THAT BEXSERO CAN ONLY PROTECT YOU OR YOUR CHILD FROM MENINGITIS CAUSED BY NEISSERIA MENINGITIDIS GROUP B. BEXSERO IS NOT EXPECTED TO PROVIDE PROTECTION AGAINST ALL CIRCULATING MENINGOCOCCAL GROUP B TYPES. HOW BEXSERO WORKS BEXSERO works by Belgenin tamamını okuyun
