dangerous bacterial infectionsThe vaccine, called Menhibrix, has

been approved for children ages 6 weeks through 18 months old. It's given

first dose may be given as early as 6 weeks of age. It is manufactured by

, a mutant diphtheria

combination vaccine that contains

H. influenzae

as well as meningococcal

serogroups C and

Y polysaccharides conjugated to tetanus toxoid (HibMenCY; MenHibrix™) has

been developed.12
