Vaccine confusion
Hi dear. I have given my baby girl 2 injections of vaccine hexaxim in her first year. Now she’s 16 months and due for DTP . I would like to know if I should do a hexaxim again or just a dtp vaccine ?

Firstly,it's due at 18 months. DTP/Hib/opv or IPV are due,so no hexaxim,as it has hepatitis B vaccine too.
