Hi I get the Td this month but at college they want the Tdap is there any risk in getting the vaccine again now after 20 days from the first vaccine, because I needed as soon as possible .
Thanks
My son who is two years old received his one year and six month vaccine because I had lost his immunization booklet and was pretty sure he didn't take it. I was just wondering if he did infact take it when he was one year and six months and again the same vaccine at 2 is it dangerous???
In a month, blood can be drawn by a doctor to see if the vaccine was effective. These are called vaccine titers. If the titers show that the child has immunity, no further vaccine is needed. If they are negative for immunity another vaccine can be administered, but in my opinion there's not really a wrong way to give vaccines unless the dose was too low. Check with your doctor and he/she can give you a definitive answer.
Hi, my daughter is 1-1/2 years old and she received opv vaccine today , which i felt was not given properly can she receive another one is it okay to receive again a second vaccine
The MMR is given at 12 months and again around 4-6 years. It is given in the leg or in the fatty tissue in back of the arm. The DPT is given usually in the upper arm so that is probably the one she got twice. Its also the one that would probably be given in the ER since they usually ask if you've had one lately. If there were a problem, it would have occured very shortly after the vaccination, such as a really sore arm. If your daughter hasnt had any unusual reaction or an unusually sore arm, she's probably ok.
