Double vaccination

2017-07-15 09:44:33
My 16 months old daughter inadvertently got TWO doses of chicken pox vaccine. However, as per vaccination schedule a baby should receive only 1 dose of chicken pox vaccine b/w 15-18 months(next vaccine at 5 years). Please advise is it ok or should we take any precaution etc.

Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. Chickenpox vaccine is 2 doses and it may be anytime after 2months from first dose. So if he has had 2 doses in gap of 2months do not worry..
