WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR USE:
Do not inject intravascularly ensuring that the needle does not enter a blood vessel.
Vaccination must be preceded by a search of the medical history (in particular for previous vaccinations and adverse events that may have occurred) and a clinical examination.
As with all injectable vaccines that may induce a possible immediate anaphylactic reaction, appropriate medical treatment is recommended.
Like any vaccine, this vaccine should be administered with caution in case of thrombocytopenia or coagulation disorders because intramuscular injection may cause bleeding in some subjects.
Vaccination can be performed in children with a congenital or acquired state of immunosuppression, knowing that depending on the state of the immune system, the vaccine response will be weaker. In children treated with immunosuppressants (corticosteroid therapy, anti-mitotic chemotherapy, etc.), it is recommended to wait until the end of the treatment before vaccinating.
The potential risk of apnea with the need for respiratory monitoring for 48-72 hours must be carefully taken into account when administering doses of primary vaccination in very premature infants (born at 28 weeks of pregnancy or less) and particularly in those with a history of respiratory immaturity. Due to the high benefit of vaccination in these infants, administration should not be suspended or postponed.
Syncope (fainting), as a psychogenic reaction to injection with a needle, may occur after or even before any vaccination. Measures should be put in place to prevent injury from fainting and manage syncopal reactions.
ACT-HIB contains sodium. ACT-HIB contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg) of sodium per dose, i.e. it is essentially 'sodium free'.

The cloudy whitish appearance of the suspension after reconstitution with a syringe of diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis or diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis-poliomyelitis vaccine is normal.
Any unused medication or waste should be disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations.
