Rotasiil nust be an oral vaccine while Rotasure is injectable. Continue the rest of the rotavirus vaccination as the oral  Rotasiil .

Dear parents, No need to panic. Ideally the rotavirus vaccine series should be completed with the same product. There will be no problem, if change in brand product. Please complete the 3 doses rotavaccine schedule.
