My kid is 4+ month old. 6 th week we have given Opv On 07/01/17 10th week we have given Opv On 07/02/17 14th week we have given IPV On 07/03/17 I heard either for Opv or Ipv we need to complete 3 dose. Ipv is not available now in market .. and I am worrying that I have not completed 3 dose of opv too. What should I do? Can I give him opv again on 07/04/17? He just had the pulse polio under govt program last week.

Don't worry he shall receive another dose of OPV at 6 mo of age and later at regular intervals. Since IPV is short currently, keep in touch with your pediatrician. Once it becomes available u can get it administered to your baby. Also try inquiring at a govt Centre for IPV. They may have it
