Child Vaccination

2017-11-24 09:15:22
I wanted to have a second opinion on vaccination. Doctor has given Easy 6 + PCV +Rotavirus vaccination at 6 weeks of my child. My child was already given BCG, HEP-B, OPV at birth. Due to some complication after giving vaccination at 6 weeks, doctor suggested giving painless vaccination at 10 week but Pentaxim is not available. Hexaxim has six combination vaccine (which includes Hep -B). Is it safe to give Hexaxim at 10 week which include Hep-B? My child has given 2 dose of Hep-B till now.
