I have female baby at 45 days .i went to put 45 days vaccination for my baby to private hospital. Paediatrician put pentaxim painless vaccine. But I prefer painful vaccine which is effective. He didn't do that. Is that vaccine is good or not.

Yes, it is a good vaccine, many parents opt for. Pediatricians usually don't go against the wish of parents. Probably there was a misunderstanding between you and your pediatrician. Anyway don't worry, it is a good effective vaccine.

Hello, thanks for your query on Lybrate "as" per your clinical history is concerned vaccine is not bad at all and also safe ,but price is very high for nothing so do a card for baby at govt hospital and give all vaccines at hospital only, you can give other vaccines in private hospital if it is not given by government of india. Hope that helps.

Painless vaccines are also effective but slightly lesser than painful vaccines and they are more safe as they cause less pain, fever, irritability etc.

Hi, do not worry, according to recent guidelines both painless and painful vaccines are both equally effective.

Choosing a vaccine is your prerogative. We as pediatricians can only suggest. Both vaccines are effective. Advantage you have with pentaxim is that you additionally got polio injection which is not available separately in private.
