New Vaccines and Vaccine recommendations - CONTINUED
Hepatitis A: This is a vaccine against the oral-fecally spread form of hepatitis. It has been previously given only to patients traveling abroad to areas of the world where Hepatitis A is endemic.
The recommendation has been expanded to include all children over the age of 1 year, regardless of travel.
Rotateq: This is a vaccine administered orally to infants in order to protect them against Rotavirus.
This virus produces an illness that generally hits during the winter season and can cause significant diarrheal illess with subsequent dehydration especially in young children.
If your child is under 3 months of age, they are eligible to receive this vaccine. We routinely start this vaccine at the 2 months well care visit.
