Dosage and administration of pneumonia vaccine for children

Nowadays, the incidence of many diseases is very high, and is even gradually becoming younger, so vaccines are very important for children. However, the dosage and usage during injection are also very important. Let us now learn about the usage and dosage of children's pneumonia vaccine.

Dosage and Administration:

Systematic revaccination is not recommended for recipients of the Pneumococcal vaccine. However, for those at high risk of pneumococcal infection (such as those who have undergone splenectomy) who have received pneumococcal vaccine for more than 5 years, or those whose antibody titers have significantly decreased (such as those with nephrotic syndrome, renal failure or organ transplantation), revaccination is recommended.

1. If patients with Hodgkin's disease need to be vaccinated, they can be given 10 days before the start of treatment. If radiation or chemotherapy is to be given, it should be given at least 14 days before starting to produce the most effective antibody immune response. Immunization is not recommended less than 10 days before the start of treatment or during treatment.

2. Immunodeficient patients should be vaccinated two weeks before surgery.

3. For patients who have undergone splenectomy, booster immunization should be given once every 5 years, with each injection dose of 0.5 ml.

4. Children under 10 years old who have undergone splenectomy or suffer from sickle cell anemia should be given a booster shot every 3 to 5 years, with 0.5 ml injected each time.

The above article gives you a detailed introduction to the usage and dosage of children's pneumonia vaccine. I believe everyone has a relatively preliminary understanding.
