The use of opened multi-dose vials of vaccine in subsequent immunization sessions
World Health Organization’s (WHO) policy on the use of opened multi-dose vials of vaccine in subsequent immunization session was first launched in 1995. As stated by WHO, sufficient data have been collected on the safety and potency of vaccines recommended for use in immunization services to warrant a change in the World Health Organization’s policy on use of multi-dose vials of vaccine. Nepal will adopt multi-dose vaccine vial policy, as outlined by WHO, in order to reduce wastage and to allow for improved vaccination services by reducing missed opportunities by encouraging health workers to open a vial even if few children are at that session. (Strategic Guideline for National Immunization Program 2000). There is high possibility of cost savings by reducing wastage.
