What MenQuadfi is and what it is used for
MenQuadfi (MenACWY) is a vaccine that can be given to children from 1
year of age, adolescents and
adults.
MenQuadfi helps to protect against infections caused by a type of
bacteria (germs) called “Neisseria
meningitidis”, specifically against types A, C, W and Y.
Neisseria meningitidis bacteria (also called meningococci) can be
passed from person to person and can
cause serious and sometimes life-threatening infections, such as:

Meningitis – an inflammation of the tissues that surround the brain
and spinal cord;

Septicaemia – an infection of the blood.
Both infections can result in serious disease with long lasting
effects or possibly death.
MenQuadfi should be used in accordance with official national
guidelines.
How the vaccine works
MenQuadfi works by stimulating the vaccinated person
