Can Two Vaccinations Be Given On The Same Day?
Question: Dear Sir ,
Birth Date of my baby is Date: 17/12/2013
First Dose : Pentaxim and Rotavirus Date: 30/01/2014
Second Dose : Pentaxim and Rotavirus Date : 01/03/2014
After Second dose we went Dubai for holiday and tried there for vaccination but as per International Vaccination schedule they didn't provide Petaxim with the reason " There should be 2 Months of Gap " and we have already provide 2 doses of Pentaxim and they started Phenmococal and Hepatitus B First dose to my baby.
First Dose :
Phenmococal and Hepatitus B Date : 16 April 2014 Prevnar-13 Given
Second Dose :
Phenmococal and Hepatitus B Date : 19 May 2014 Prevnar-13 Given
and next Third Dose of Phenmococal and Hepatitus B suggested by doctor is on 20th XXXXXXX 2014.
As of now my baby completed 5 Months on 17/05/2014 but pentaxim is not available in market anymore (out of stock) & the distributor says, it could take 7-15 days for new stock. Please suggest should I hold on for 10-12 days (the child will be 5 Months then), or should I look for alternate (Easy five, pentavac, Tripacel, Boostix, etc). If alternate, then which vaccine is recommended.
Second concern : Since last dose of Phenmococal and Hepatitus B was given on Date : 19 May 2014 (Prevnar-13) and PD told us to give Pentaxim after 7-8 days if available else any alternate will be provide . Please suggest should I give any alternate ASAP or we can hold till next date of vaccination that is 19 XXXXXXX 2014 along with Third Dose of Phenmococal and Hepatitus B suggested by doctor is on 20th XXXXXXX 2014.

Hi
Welcome to the healthcaremagic
Two vaccine can be given on the same day or minimum 26 days apart for good results.Since you gave prevenar and hep B on 19 may,so pentaxim can be given only after 15 XXXXXXX along with prevenar.Pentaxim is available now.Infanrix is also available. So you can complete vaccination by then.
Happy to help you
