The Expanded Program on Immunization schedule (at 6, 10, 14 weeks of age) may only be used if a dose of hepatitis B vaccine has been given at birth.
Where a dose of hepatitis B vaccine is given at birth, Infanrix Hexa can be used as a replacement for supplementary doses of hepatitis B vaccine from the age of 6 weeks. If a second dose of hepatitis B vaccine is required before this age, monovalent hepatitis B vaccine should be used.
Locally established immunoprophylactic measures against hepatitis B should be maintained.
Other combinations of antigens have been studied in clinical trials following primary vaccination with Infanrix Hexa and may be used for a booster dose: diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis (DTPa), diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, Haemophilus influenzae type b (DTPa+Hib), diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, inactivated poliomyelitis, Haemophilus influenzae type b (DTPa-IPV+Hib) and diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, hepatitis B, inactivated poliomyelitis, Haemophilus influenzae type b (DTPa-HBV-IPV+Hib).
Method of administration: Infanrix Hexa is for deep intramuscular injection.
