Shouldn't my baby receive a smaller dose of vaccine than an adult?
Good question! But no. Vaccines aren't dose-dependent like drugs. They don't act in the body the same way. Drugs distribute and act on the whole body. Vaccines stimulate the immune response in the area where they are given. Vaccines don't need to be reduced according to age or weight, because they are made and tested so they contain just enough active parts to work. Vaccines are already adjusted for children.
