MenQuadfi Special Precautions

Talk to the doctor, pharmacist or nurse before vaccination with MenQuadfi if the patient or the child has: an infection with high temperature (over 38°C). If this applies, the vaccination will be given after the infection is under control. There is no need to delay vaccination for a minor infection such as a cold. However, talk to the doctor, pharmacist or nurse first.
A bleeding problem or bruise easily.
Ever fainted from an injection. Fainting, sometimes accompanied by falling, can occur (mostly in adolescents) after, or even before, any injection.
A weak immune system (such as due to HIV infection, other disease, or use of a medicine that affect the immune system), as the patient or child may not fully benefit from having MenQuadfi.
If any of the previously mentioned apply to the patient or child (or if not sure whether they apply), talk to the doctor, pharmacist or nurse before the patient or the child is given MenQuadfi. As with any vaccine, MenQuadfi may not fully protect all of those who get the vaccine.
MenQuadfi contains sodium: This medicine contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per dose, this means that it is essentially 'sodium-free'.
Driving and using machines: MenQuadfi is not likely to affect the ability to drive, cycle or use machines. However, do not drive, cycle or use any machines if not feeling well.
