Immunization Schedule
(Updated 10/09)

The following is Primary Pediatrics' current immunization schedule.  This schedule is subject to change as immunization recommendations change.  Some of the immunizations are available as combination vaccines (e.g. DTaP, Hib, and IPV are combined into the Pentacel vaccine), so there may not be as many actual shots as there are listed immunizations.
  • Birth (in hospital) or 2 week visit (if not done at birth):  Hep B #1
  • 2 months: Hep B #2, DTaP #1, Hib #1, IPV #1, Prevnar #1, Rotateq #1
  • 4 months: DTaP #2, Hib #2, IPV #2, Prevnar #2, Rotateq #2
  • 6 months: Hep B #3, DTaP #3, Hib #3, IPV #3, Prevnar #3, Rotateq #3
  • 9 months: none
  • 12 months: MMR #1, Varicella #1, Prevnar #4
  • 15 months: DTaP #4, Hib #4, Hep A #1
