Product Overview
Pentacel® is a combination vaccine that provides active immunization against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (DTaP), poliovirus (IPV), and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) in a single 0.5 mL dose. Designed for use in children 6 weeks through 4 years of age (prior to fifth birthday), Pentacel simplifies the pediatric vaccination schedule by reducing the number of injections.
