Important Safety Information
In studies, the most common side effects of PEDIARIX were pain, redness, and swelling where the shot was given, fever, and fussiness. Fever occurred more often with PEDIARIX than with separately given vaccines. PEDIARIX should not be given to children who are allergic to any part of the vaccine, including yeast and certain antibiotics (neomycin and polymyxin B). As with any vaccine, rare, unexpected side effects may occur and vaccination may not protect everyone receiving the vaccine. As with any vaccine, vaccination may not protect 100% of susceptible individuals.
