My son is 14.5 months old. He is about to receive his mmr and chickenpox vaccination. My query is whether he can receive mmr and chickenpox vaccine as separate shots or receive as single mmrv shot. If he receives mmr and chickenpox as separate shots. Can he receive these two vaccine simultaneously. Further he missed his 12 month hepatitis a vaccine. Can he receive it now (with 2 1/2 month delay) and whether he can receive this hepatitis a together with his other 15 month vaccines.

Your son needs to separate shots for MMS and chickenpox vaccines as the combined vaccine is not available for both MMR and chickenpox. The Hepatitis A can be given even if it is late by 2 or 3 months. More than one vaccine can be given simultaneously at different sites
