First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study checked the safety of the Hexaxim vaccine in 713 infants aged 2 months and older in South Korea. Researchers tracked side effects like injection site reactions, fever, and crying after routine vaccination. The goal was to confirm the vaccine's safety in everyday use, not to measure how well it prevents disease.
