Recommended Childhood Immunization Schedule
United States, January - December 2000
Vaccines1 are listed under routinely recommended
ages. Light gray bars indicate range of recommended ages for
immunization. Any dose not given at the recommended age should
be given as a “catch-up” immunization at any subsequent visit
when indicated and feasible. Dark gray bars indicate vaccines
to be given if previously recommended doses were missed or given
earlier than the recommended minimum age. You can download
The
Recommended Childhood Immunization Schedule from Blue Care
Network in PDF format. To open that file you will need
Acrobat
Reader which is available free.

Approved by
the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), the
American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), and the American Academy
of Family Physicians (AAFP).
On October 22,
1999, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)
recommended that Rotashield® (RRV-TV), the only U.S.-licensed
rotavirus vaccine, no longer be used in the United States (MMWR,
Volume 48, Number 43, Nov. 5, 1999). Parents should be reassured
that their children who received rotavirus vaccine before July
are not at increased risk for intussusception now.
1
This schedule indicates the recommended ages for routine administration
of currently licensed childhood vaccines as of 11/1/99. Additional
vaccines may be licensed and recommended during the year. Licensed
combination vaccines may be used whenever any components of
the combination are indicated and its other components are not
contraindicated. Providers should consult the manufacturers’
package inserts for detailed recommendations.
2
Infants bom to HBsAg-negative mothers should receive
the 1st dose of hepatitis B (Hep B) vaccine by age 2 months.
The 2nd dose should be at least one month after the 1st dose.
The 3rd dose should be administered at least 4 months after
the 1st dose and at least 2 months after the 2nd dose, but not
before 6 months of age for infants.
Infants
born to HBsAg-positive mothers should receive hepatitis
B vaccine and 0.5 mL hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) within
12 hours of birth at separate sites. The 2nd dose is recommended
at 1-2 months of age and the 3rd dose at 6 months of age.
Infants
born to mothers whose HBsAg status is unknown should
receive hepatitis B vaccine within 12 hours of birth. Maternal
blood should be drawn at the time of delivery to determine the
mother’s HBsAg status; if the HBsAg test is positive, the infant
should receive HBIG as soon as possible (no later than 1 week
of age).
All children
and adolescents (through 18 years of age) who have not
been immunized against hepatitis B may begin the series during
any visit. Special efforts should be made to immunize children
who were born in or whose parents were born in areas of the
world with moderate or high endemicity of hepatitis B virus
infection.
3
The 4th dose of DTaP (diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular
pertussis vaccine) may be administered as early as 12 months
of age, provided 6 months have elapsed since the 3rd dose and
the child is unlikely to return at age 15-18 months. Td (tetanus
and diphtheria toxoids) is recommended at 11-12 years of age
if at least 5 years have elapsed since the last dose of DTP,
DTaP or DT. Subsequent routine Td boosters are recommended every
10 years.
4
Three Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) conjugate vaccines
are licensed for infant use. If PRP-OMP (PedvaxHIB ® or ComVax
® [Merck]) is administered at 2 and 4 months of age, a dose
at 6 months is not required. Because clinical studies in infants
have demonstrated that using some combination products may induce
a lower immune response to the Hib vaccine component, DTaP/Hib
combination products should not be used for primary immunization
in infants at 2, 4 or 6 months of age, unless FDA-approved for
these ages.
5 To
eliminate the risk of vaccine-associated paralytic polio (VAPP),
an all-lPV schedule is now recommended for routine childhood polio
vaccination in the United States. All children should receive
four doses of IPV at 2 months, 4 months, 6-18 months, and 4-6
years. OPV (if available) may be used only for the following special
circumstances:
- Mass
vaccination campaigns to control outbreaks of paralytic polio.
- Unvaccinated
children who will be traveling in 4 weeks to areas where polio
is endemic or epidemic.
- Children
of parents who do not accept the recommended number of vaccine
injections. These children may receive OPV only for the third
or fourth dose or both; in this situation, health-care providers
should administer OPV only after discussing the risk for VAPP
with parents or caregivers.
- During
the transition to an all-lPV schedule, recommendations for
the use of remaining OPV supplies in physicians’ offfices
and clinics have been issued by the American Academy of Pediatrics
(see Pediatrics, December 1999).
6
The 2nd dose of measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine is
recommended routinely at 4-6 years of age but may be administered
during any visit, provided at least 4 weeks have elapsed since
receipt of the 1st dose and that both doses are administered
beginning at or after 12 months of age. Those who have not previously
received the second dose should complete the schedule by the
11-12 year old visit.
7
Varicella (Var) vaccine is recommended at any visit on or after
the first birthday for susceptible children, i.e. those who
lack a reliable history of chicken pox (as judged by a health
care provider) and who have not been immunized. Susceptible
persons 13 years of age or older should receive 2 doses, given
at least 4 weeks apart.
8
Hepatitis A (Hep A) is shaded to indicate its recommended use
in selected states and/or regions; consult your local public
health authority. (Also see MMWR Oct. 01, 1999/48(RR12);
1-37).
