Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Menveo Work?

Menveo works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against the Neisseria meningitidis bacteria (specifically serogroups A, C, W, and Y). The vaccine contains inactivated bacterial components, which train the immune system to recognize and attack the meningococcal bacteria if exposed in the future, providing protection against infection.

Common Dosages

  • Pre-filled syringes or vials for injection: typically a single dose for most patients, administered intramuscularly.

Typical Dosing

  • For adolescents: A single dose is typically administered at ages 11 to 12, followed by a booster dose at age 16.
  • For high-risk individuals: The dosing schedule may vary depending on the patient's age and risk factors, with additional doses given based on the risk of ongoing exposure to Neisseria meningitidis.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Adolescents aged 11 to 12, with a booster dose at age 16
  • Individuals 2 months and older at increased risk of meningococcal disease
  • People traveling to or living in areas where meningococcal disease is common, such as the "meningitis belt" in sub-Saharan Africa

Who Shouldn't Take Menveo?

  • Known hypersensitivity or severe allergic reaction to any component of the vaccine
  • History of severe allergic reaction to a previous dose of Menveo or any meningococcal vaccine

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Menveo is given as an injection by a healthcare provider, usually into the upper arm muscle.
  • If you or your child have a weakened immune system, discuss with your healthcare provider if Menveo is the right vaccine for you.
  • It’s essential to complete the full vaccination schedule, especially if you're traveling to a high-risk area.
  • As with any vaccine, Menveo may not provide 100% protection, so it's crucial to maintain other preventive measures if you're at high risk of exposure to meningococcal bacteria.

Side Effects of Menveo

Common Side Effects

  • Pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site
  • Headache
  • Fatigue or tiredness
  • Muscle pain

Uncommon/Severe Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis)
  • High fever
  • Seizures (rarely)

Risks and Warnings of Menveo

  • Allergic Reactions: Severe allergic reactions can occur, although they are rare. If you experience symptoms such as hives, swelling of the face or throat, or difficulty breathing, seek immediate medical attention.
  • Syncope (Fainting): Fainting after vaccination is possible, particularly in adolescents. It is recommended to sit or lie down for 15 minutes after receiving the injection to reduce this risk.
  • Fever: Some people may develop a fever after receiving the vaccine. It is typically mild and resolves on its own but can be managed with over-the-counter medications if needed.

Interactions with Menveo

Common Drug Interactions

  • Live vaccines: If you are receiving other vaccines, especially live vaccines, discuss with your healthcare provider as certain vaccines may need to be spaced out to avoid interactions.
  • Immune-suppressing medications: Patients on immunosuppressive drugs may not have a full response to the vaccine. Discuss your medication regimen with your doctor before receiving Menveo.

Alternatives to Menveo

  • Menactra: Another meningococcal conjugate vaccine targeting the same serogroups (A, C, W, and Y) as Menveo.
  • Bexsero: A vaccine used to protect against Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B.
  • Trumenba: Another option for preventing Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B.
  • Meningococcal polysaccharide vaccines: Used in some regions, these provide protection against similar serogroups but are less commonly used than conjugate vaccines like Menveo.
