Patient's question:

Age

Doctor's answer:

For six-year-old children, it is acceptable to administer adult-dose vaccines without any issues. Guideline: Moreover, this vaccine is generally quite safe, with a wide range of dose selection, so it is safe to administer a single dose of 10 micrograms (adult dose).
