  • Combination Vaccines
    INFORMATION FOR PARENTS Combination Vaccines Last updated April 2014 The measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine (MMR) and Combination vaccines reduce the diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis vaccine (DTaP) each protect your child against three diseases. However, these number of shots your child needs two vaccines are not considered true combination vaccines while protecting against several because in the United States, you cannot get separate serious diseases. vaccines for all of the diseases that MMR and DTaP protect against. Fewer Shots—Same Protection Some examples of common combination vaccines for children are: Combination vaccines take two or more vaccines that could be given individually and put them into one • Comvax, which combines Hib and Hep B shot. Children get the same protection as they do from • Twinrix, which combines Hep A and Hep B individual vaccines given separately—but with fewer shots. • Pediarix, which combines DTaP, Hep B, and IPV (polio) So, at a doctor’s visit, your child may only get two or three shots to protect him from five diseases, instead of five • ProQuad, which combines MMR and individual shots. Fewer shots may mean less pain for your varicella (chickenpox) child and less stress for you. • Kinrix, which combines DTaP and IPV (polio) • Pentacel, which combines DTaP, IPV (polio), and Hib To learn about the diseases that vaccines prevent, visit: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd-vac/fact-sheet-parents.html Fewer Shots—On Time Protection Combination vaccines help parents, doctors, and nurses keep children up-to-date on vaccines.

  • Users of State Supplied Vaccines
    STATE OF CONNECTICUT DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH IMMUNIZATION PROGRAM PLEASE COPY THIS FOR ALL HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS IN YOUR PRACTICE TO: All Users of State Supplied Vaccine FROM: Mick Bolduc-Vaccine Coordinator Connecticut Vaccine Program DATE: October 2, 2012 SUBJECT: DTaP/IPV/Hib (Pentacel®) vaccine supply & MMRV vaccine availability The primary purpose of this communication is to provide you with an update on the temporary shortage of DTaP/IPV/Hib (Pentacel®) vaccine and the availability of MMRV combination vaccine. DTaP/IPV/Hib supply The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) has provided the Connecticut Vaccine Program with an update on the temporary shortage of Sanofi Pasteur’s DTaP/IPV/Hib vaccine (brand name Pentacel®). The shortage is anticipated to last through March 2013 with monthly supplies of Pentacel® significantly decreasing in the interim. Since the shortage began in May 2012, the Connecticut Vaccine Program has been receiving approximately 2/3 the amount of Pentacel® that we normally distribute each month. Through the end of March 2013 we can expect to receive only about 20 % of the amount we have been receiving since the shortage began. Providers will need to increase their orders accordingly for single antigen DTaP, IPV, and Hib vaccines as well as consider ordering GlaxoSmithKline’s DTaP/IPV/Hep B combination vaccine (brand name Pediarix®) to ensure they have enough vaccine to fully immunize children based on the recommended schedule. There is sufficient supply of DTaP, IPV and Hib for all children to receive a complete series of all recommended vaccines. We recommend that providers who have started vaccinating a child with Pentacel® vaccine complete the series with Pentacel® whenever possible.
