† PRP-OMP is the Hib formulation contained in Liquid PedvaxHIB. PRP-T is the Hib formulation<br />

contained in the other Hib-containing vaccines: ACT-Hib, Hiberix, Infanrix hexa, Menitorix<br />

and Pediacel. A minimum interval of 1 month is recommended between primary doses of Hibcontaining<br />

vaccine in a catch-up schedule.<br />

‡ A booster dose is not needed if the last previous dose was given at >15 months of age.<br />

§ If the 1st dose of Hib vaccine was given at >6 months of age, a 3rd dose, prior to the booster<br />

dose at age ≥12 months, is not required.<br />
