Fipv and IPV are same

2022-03-07 16:04:17
As per vaccination chart IPV need to be given but in government hospital FIPV is being given to my child. So fIPv and IPV are same or different. At government hospital they don't give fipv at 2.5 month in Jaipur so I will be providing that vaccine tomorrow from outside so can I give IPv outside or I need to ask for fipv

fIPV is fractionated IPV and different from IPV,fIPV has smaller dose but needs to ne given twice.So you'll have to give fIPV as second dose and preferably of same brand as previous one.
