MMR triple vaccine private clinic

3 replies

I am still trying to decide whether to give my son the single vaccines or the triple one. Has anyone visited a private clinic in London to have the triple vaccine? Currently there are 2 triple vaccines available (Priorix and MMRII) on the NHS and they give you whichever one is available on the day. I wanted to know which one is better so wondered if anyone has been to a private clinic where they can choose which vaccine is better for their child?

They are made by different companies, but you can request one or the other from your GP on the NHS. I think one is considered to be a more acceptable option for vegetarians (Priorix)but I guess it depends on your definition of better?

Some parents say that their child was damaged by the mmr, would like to know which mmr vaccine they had (priorix or mmrII)
