A nurse or other trained health professional will give you or your child this vaccine. This vaccine is given as a shot into one of your muscles (usually in the thighs or upper arms).
This vaccine is usually given only once. You will not need a booster dose unless the vaccine is for a patient younger than 2 years of age or your doctor tells you otherwise.
It is very important for your child to receive all of the shots for the vaccine. If your child misses a dose, call your child’s doctor for another appointment.
Vaccine information statements are given to the patient, parent, or guardian before receiving this vaccine. Read the information carefully. Ask your doctor if you have any questions.
