Pneumococcal meningitis - Generics

Pneumococcal meningitis is a serious bacterial infection of the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. It is caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria, also known as pneumococcus.

Symptoms of pneumococcal meningitis may include fever, headache, stiff neck, sensitivity to light, confusion, and vomiting. In severe cases, seizures, coma, and even death may occur.

Pneumococcal meningitis is typically treated with antibiotics, such as penicillin or cephalosporins, to kill the bacteria causing the infection. In some cases, hospitalization may be necessary to provide supportive care, such as intravenous fluids and medications to control symptoms.

Prevention of pneumococcal meningitis is possible through vaccination. The pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) is routinely recommended for infants and young children, while the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) is recommended for older adults and those with certain medical conditions. In addition, good hygiene practices, such as handwashing and covering the mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, can help prevent the spread of pneumococcal bacteria.
