The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is not currently reviewing vaccines for urinary tract infections.

Prophylactic vaccinations are considered by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation. However, therapeutic vaccinations, for example, for cancer or another condition, are considered by NICE.
