what immunizations are in pediarix
While some are still in the clinical trial stage, the following vaccines are currently available: Pediarix is a combination vaccine that combines the immunizations for Diphtheria, Tetanus and acellular Pertussis (DTaP), Hepatitis B and inactivated Polio (IPV), which used to require three separate shots. Pediarix is given to children as a three dose series at 2, 4, and 6 months. So instead of 9 shots for the series to get protection against Diptheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (Whooping Cough), Hepatitis B and Polio, you can now get the same protection for your kids in just 3 shots.
