Mistakenly I mix both ID and IM vaccine
I took 2 doses of ID injection and mistakenly rest 2 doses I took for IM injection. So I supposed to take 4 doses of ID injection. So I took 2 doses of ID and 2 doses of IM. What should I do now?
Here is past date of injections- 24 September (ID), 28september(ID), 5 October (IM), 28 October (IM)

Sir
On the assumption that you are talking about the anti rabies vaccine and you have been advised the same after due consultation, as such there are no specific guidelines available for intermixing the vaccine type and route regarding vaccine immunogenicity. Recommendations by the World health organization say if a intradermal dose inadvertently given subcutaneously or intramuscularly, a new fresh dose of intradermal injection should be given.
Thanks and Regards.
