Question : Hello Doctor ,
I have a 3 Months old baby boy.I have query regarding his vaccinations.
His 10 weeks vaccinations are due which includes DTap/DTwP-II , OPV/IPV , Hib-II,ROTAVIRUS,PNEMOCOCCAL.
The issue is we have moved to a different city now and I wanted to know if its required to give vaccinations of same brand as it was given in his 6 week vaccinations for the above.
He was given Easyfour TT,RotaTeq,Synflorix.
I am afraid if we can find the same brand in this city so please guide.
Thanks in advance

Brief Answer:
You can find same brands

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
I understand that your query is regarding vaccine brand for next doses.
The brands you mentioned are available throughout XXXXXXX almost in any town or city.
Though it is not mandatory to go for same brand in easy four, if available you can take it or can take any other dtp hib vaccine like easy four, quadravac, pentavac, etc. All give similar protection.
In rota virus, stick to same rotateq. It's available everywhere. Same with synflorix.
Regards
Dr Arun
