IPV vaccination

2018-06-23 07:15:44
My baby is of 4 months, till now we didn't provided IPV, Because of non availability of dose. But now doctor avaoided to give, because they said OPV and IPV both are same. And its already 4 month, not provided initially at the age 1 and 1/2 month. Due to this reason they avaoided. What i am asking is opv is enough or should i consult other doctor for IPV also.

IPV is not available with private doctors currently. Visit a government or municipal hospital for the same. IPV is of course better than OPV
