Is Celvapan definitely going to be two doses?

Does anyone know? I was told when I had my vaccination that there may have to be a follow-up dose, 3 weeks later, but they didnt know at that point. I havent heard anything, and my DD is due to have hers at the end of the week and they havent mentioned anything about 2 doses for her.

Yes, Celvapan is two shots that are 3wks apart. I'm booked in for mine too. The reason being is b/c Cevapan is preservative free.

Thanks mommymeggie - they said when i had mine that they still hadn't decided whether two would be necessary, particularly for adults. Guess I'd better keep myself available next week then!

I've heard where people suggested that two may not be needed. Please let me know if they decide to only give you one. Would be good to know. thanks.

How did you manage to get celvapan olivo? Are you allergic to eggs? My surgery have refused to give it to me.

no, no allergy - i'm not in uk, and it was being offered to pg women and new mothers. they have also used celvapan to do nursery and primary school children.
