Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Should The Pentaxim Injection Be Given To A 4 Month Old?
Hello Doctor, My baby is 4 months old and my pediatrition suggested to get PENTAXIM injection but I have searched for the injection in almost many pharmacists and they say that there is no supply of PENTAXIM injection still now and not sure when it will be supplied. When I crosschecked with my pediatrition they suggested the alternative for pentaxim is ( infanrix+hibirex) but I could nt get infanrix also in any of the pharmacists due to lack of supply. Please can you guide me where I can get the PENTAXIM injection in Bangalore
hello... reviewed your question... it is difficult to get pentaxim now a days as it is i. short supply from company... instead you can give him PENTAVAC injection... there are two minute differences... 1.. it does not contain injectable polio which pentaxim comntains... so you hv to get it seperately
2.. it is associated with pain and fever for two days... but not a major issue as u can hv medicine for that...
