Children not vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine up to 3 months of age are immunized with DTP-Hep B vaccine three times according to the 3 months, 4.5 months, 6 months. Reduction of intervals is not allowed. If it is necessary to increase the intervals, the next vaccination should be carried out as soon as possible, determined by the state of children's health.

At the same time, up to 3 vaccines against hepatitis B are administered with a hepatitis B single vaccine with an interval of 1 and 6 months after the first administration. Revaccination against pertussis, diphtheria and tetanus is carried out by the DTP vaccine once at the age of 18 months (if the timing of vaccinations is violated - 12-13 months after the completed vaccination course), but not later than reaching the age of four.
