We have received the 
Bivalent Pfizer Booster at DHND/DOC!
Bivalent Pfizer Booster at DHND/DOC!Patients are eligible to receive the bivalent booster 2 months after completing their initial series of a monovalent vaccine (2 doses for non-immunocompromised patients, and 3 doses for immunocompromised patients).
Helpful information:
- Bivalent is not approved to be given as an initial series, only as a booster.
- We still have the initial series (monovalent) Pfizer vaccines stocked at DHND for patients needing their initial doses.
- Bivalent is to be administered the same as the monovalent vaccine. Dosage: 0.3mLs, Route: intramuscular, and observation for 15 minutes after administration.
- Discard multi dose vials 12 hours after first puncture
- Multi dose vial contains 6 doses
The vials for the monovalent and the bivalent look very similar, please double check before drawing up vaccines. The bivalent boxes have been marked with purple tape and a red alert sticker that says, “look alike, sound alike”.
