Q. Hi Doctor, For my kid 6th week vaccination completed at Government center. There they given Penta-1 injection for DPT+Hep-B+Hib, for PCV-'pneumosil vaccine ip 10 varient' and seperate injection for IPV and. Also at government centers they are not giving PCV and IPV at 10th week. But in private hospital they are giving prevenar13 for PCV and Hexavalent vaccine which includes six vaccines(DPT+Hep-B+Hib+IPV). As these vaccines are more effective and as we can affordable, from 10th week onwards we want to take vaccination for my kid from private hospital. As 6th week vaccination done with pneumosil, penta-1 and IPV injection at government center, do we need to continue with government vaccines for 10th and 14 weeks also ? or Can we get vaccination at private hospital with prevenar13 and hexaxim for 10th and 14th weeks ? Please suggest us....
