When both MenACWY and MenB vaccination are indicated at the same visit, either pentavalent MenABCWY vaccine (Penbraya(R) or Penmenvy(R)) may be used instead of separate MenACWY and MenB injections.

The CDC and ACIP recommend the MenB vaccine series to be completed with a product from the same manufacturer (i.e., MenB-FHbp (Trumenba(R)) to follow MenACWY-TT/MenB-FHbp (Penbraya(R)) and MenB-4C (Bexsero(R)) to follow MenACWY-CRM/MenB-4C (Penmenvy(R))).

Both pentavalent meningococcal vaccines are administered in 0.5-mL doses.

There are 2 different pentavalent (MenABCWY) meningococcal vaccines commercially available in the US: MenACWY-TT/MenB-FHbp (Penbraya(R)) and MenACWY-CRM/MenB-4C (Penmenvy(R)). These vaccines are administered by IM injection only. MenABCWY vaccines may be given concurrently with other age-appropriate vaccines.

When multiple vaccines are administered during a single health-care visit, give each parenteral vaccine using separate syringes and different injection sites and separate injection sites by >1 inch. In adults and adolescents, IM injections should preferably be made into the deltoid muscle; alternatively, IM injections can be made into the anterolateral thigh. To ensure delivery into muscle, IM injections should be made at a 90degrees angle to the skin using a needle length appropriate for the individual's age and body mass, thickness of adipose tissue and muscle at the injection site, and injection technique.

Improper storage or handling of vaccines may reduce vaccine potency resulting in reduced or inadequate immune response in vaccinees. Inspect all vaccines upon delivery and monitor and maintain the appropriate storage temperature. Do not administer vaccine that has been mishandled or has not been stored at the recommended temperature. If there are concerns about mishandling, contact the manufacturer or state or local immunization or health departments for guidance on whether the vaccine is usable.

Review the full interaction monograph for more information.

Drug Interaction	Drug Names
Non-Live or Non-Replicating Vaccines/Teplizumab SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Teplizumab may cause lymphopenia and alter the immune system's response to vaccines.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Administration of a non-live vaccine within the 2 weeks prior to, during, or for 6 weeks following teplizumab therapy may result in decreased effectiveness of the vaccine.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Ideally, administer vaccines prior to initiating teplizumab therapy. The manufacturer of teplizumab states that non-live vaccines (e.g., inactivated or mRNA vaccines) are not recommended within the 2 weeks prior to, during, or for 6 weeks after stopping teplizumab therapy.(1) The immune response to non-live vaccines should be monitored in patients who receive teplizumab within these time frames. The Centers for Disease Control's (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) states that non-live vaccines should be used with caution in patients who are severely immunosuppressed. Patients who are vaccinated within the 14 days prior to initiating immunosuppressive therapy should be considered unvaccinated and should be revaccinated at least 3 months after immunosuppressive therapy is discontinued when immune competence is restored.(2) For COVID-19 vaccines, the CDC advises planning for vaccination at least 2 weeks before starting or resuming immunosuppressive therapy. Patients should be offered and given a COVID-19 vaccine even if the use and timing of immunosuppressive agents cannot be adjusted. The CDC states that an age-appropriate mRNA COVID-19 vaccine is preferred over the Janssen COVID-19 vaccine for the primary and booster doses for immunocompromised patients. All immunocompromised patients over 5 years of age should receive at least 1 booster dose if eligible. See the CDC's Interim Clinical Considerations for Use of COVID-19 Vaccines for age- and product-specific recommendations.(3) DISCUSSION: Vaccinations may be less effective if administered within 2 weeks before, during, and for 6 weeks following teplizumab therapy.(1)	TZIELD
