Antibiotics are usually prescribed to eradicate organisms from secretions to minimize the risk of transmission. All those in close contact with infected patient should be treated with antibiotic effective against pertusiss. Close contacts of age < 7 should complete four-dose series with minimum intervals Human to human (adolescents and adults may serve a reservoirs), airborne transmission 1 Combination vaccines are preferred over the other available forms for childhood immunizations because they offer a combination of vaccines to be given at once, minimizing the number of injections as well as opportunities for missing a dose. However, some combinations may only be licensed for a certain age group. 2 All images are hyperlinked to original web pages. 3 May change yearly. Check with CDC website to confirm. ( 4 Different manufacturer s formulations may not be used interchangeably; no data exists on the effect of interchanging vaccines on the protection offered. Use of the same manufacturer s vaccine is preferred for at least the first three doses.
