Mom of a 2 yr 10 m old boy2 years ago
Q.

My son is 4 month old..he had his vaccination on 6th march 2023..one of the vaccination hexaxim (DTPa-hepB-IPV-Hib) given was expired in November 2022..no side effect till now( 144 hours have passed since vaccination) but i want to ask whether can it cause trouble later and also can it create some issue in future? Also tell me is vaccine have some potency after expiry as i have read it does have till 6 months after expiry and if it has some potency,then should i give another dose to my child or not and if yes when should it be given?

A. the child will not get any side effects to the child but yes you cannot comment on the potential so it is advisable to get the same vaccine short which has not expired

A. I think you need to clear this out with your doctor first of all giving an expired vaccination can have severe side-effects of child has been doing okay for last 144 hours and that is very very good but further more I would recommend you to just check with your doctor and also how can this miss happening happen you need to check for that also because that’s basically negligence
