Mom, menurut saya informasi yang diberikan oleh careline Wyeth kurang berimbang. Seperti posting saya sebelumnya, vaksin pneumokokus tidak hanya satu. Dari keterangan di CDC, ada PCV dan PPV -ini sekaligus koreksi.
FYI, vaksin yang diproduksi Wyeth ini termasuk PCV-7 (berisi 7 valen virus). Berikut saya kutipkan keterangan dari CDC (Center for Disease Control and Preventions) tentang PCV: --- The routine schedule for pneumococcal conjugate vaccine is 4 doses, one dose at each of these ages: - 2 months - 6 months - 4 months - 12-15 months Children who weren't vaccinated at these ages can still get the vaccine. The number of doses needed depends on the child's age. Ask your health care provider for details. --- Keterangan ini ada di sini: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/vis/downloads/vis-pneumoconjugate.pdf (format pdf, hanya 2 halaman) Masih dari CDC tentang vaksin: --- Any vaccine can cause side effects. For the most part these are minor (for example, a sore arm or low-grade fever) and go away within a few days. Listed below are vaccines licensed in the United States and side effects that have been associated with each of them. This information is copied directly from CDC's Vaccine Information Statements, which in turn are derived from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendations for each vaccine. --- Jadi yang berbeda adalah jenis efek samping yang bersifat individual. MANAPUN BISA. Moms bisa lihat Possible Side-Effects from Vaccines di: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vac-gen/side-effects.htm Untuk PCV: --- What are the risks from pneumococcal conjugate vaccine? In studies (nearly 60,000 doses), pneumococcal conjugate vaccine was associated with only mild reactions: * Up to about 1 infant out of 4 had redness, tenderness, or swelling where the shot was given. * Up to about 1 out of 3 had a fever of over 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, and up to about 1 in 50 had a higher fever (over 102.2 degrees Fahrenheit). * Some children also became fussy or drowsy, or had a loss of appetite. So far, no moderate or severe reactions have been associated with this vaccine. However, a vaccine, like any medicine, could cause serious problems, such as a severe allergic reaction. The risk of this vaccine causing serious harm, or death, is extremely small. --- Untuk vaksin PP (Pneumococcal Polysaccharide): What are the risks from PPV? PPV is a very safe vaccine. About half of those who get the vaccine have very mild side effects, such as redness or pain where the shot is given. Less than 1% develop a fever, muscle aches, or more severe local reactions. Severe allergic reactions have been reported very rarely. As with any medicine, there is a very small risk that serious problems, even death, could occur after getting a vaccine. Getting the disease is much more likely to cause serious problems than getting the vaccine. --- Jadi ADA efek samping untuk vaksin IPD dari Wyeth (PCV-7) bermerek dagang Prevnar :) Dan ada pula efek samping untuk vaksin PPV (saat ini diproduksi oleh Merck, dengan merek dagang Pneumo 23). Semoga membantu meluruskan. Kita juga boleh kok, memeriksa dulu label dan kemasannya untuk memastikan. Oh ya, saya bukan PR dari pembuat-vaksin-pesaing-Wyeth kok hehehe... Hanya ibu biasa dengan jumlah pertanyaan yang kurang biasa.
