Hello,
Infanrix and Hibrix combination is available. Here IPV has to be taken seperately.
Even cellular type of vaccine is quite good except for the fever and pain part. This is usually over come by proper doses and duration of paracetamol to the child.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
