Missed a dose?
If your child missed a dose or started late, most vaccines can be given on a catch-up basis. The schedule does not usually need to restart. Talk to your pediatrician, who can adjust timing safely for your child.

About this schedule
The National Immunisation Program provides free vaccines to children in Australia, on advice from the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation. It uses the Hexavalent combination through infancy, includes MenB from 6 weeks, and delivers the adolescent doses through school-based programmes. Some vaccines differ for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and by state, so check your local schedule.
