On June 26, 2019, after reviewing data on safety and immunogenicity, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)| voted to include DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB in the federal Vaccines for Children (VFC) program.| This report summarizes the indications for DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB and provides guidance for its use.
