RECOMMENDED VACCINES FOR CHILDREN UNDER 2 YEARS
Haemophilus Vaccine
It is a vaccine that gives immunity to various diseases caused by the bacteria Haemophilus influenzae type B (HiB), which mainly affects children under 5 years of age. The most serious diseases caused by this bacterium are: pneumonia, infections of the upper airways such as epiglottitis, sinusitis and otitis, generalized infection in the bloodstream and meningitis. The vaccine is inactivated, composed of molecules (oligosaccharides) of the HiB bacterium capsule conjugated to a protein, and administered intramuscularly. The basic scheme with three doses at 2, 4 and 6 months of age is recommended. It is present in the Pentavalent vaccine in the National Health System (SUS), Hexavalent and inactivated Pentavalent (in the private health system).
The Vaccine Observatory studies routine vaccines indicated for children under two years of age (except flu and yellow fever), considering the recommendations of the National Immunization Schedule of the National Immunization Program of the Ministry of Health.
