Pulse polio and OPV are same. But pulse polio will be given in mass( large no of people) vaccination campaign. Now you can take routine 10 week vaccine schedule. Take extra OPV after 1 month. If pulse polio and baby vaccination or with a gap of 1 month you can skip any polio dose ..no need to take same vaccine. If it is more than 1 month then don't take 2 vaccines together.
