Guide for use

Guidance:
The advice on the use of paracetamol following MenB vaccination differs to previous advice on the use of paracetamol for post-vaccination fever which may still appear on infant paracetamol product packaging. In order to avoid confusion, a patient information leaflet has been produced detailing advice on paracetamol dosage and timings and addressing frequently asked questions. This leaflet has been made available to order on now and every parent/ guardian should be given a copy at the 2 month immunisation appointment.
