To reduce the potential for vaccine administration errors, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently released a series of printable labels based on ACIP recommendations. Labels include brand names, ages, uses (which dose in series), and route of immunization. Some also include special notes about possible latex, dosing and reconstitution time ranges for use. The labels can be attached to storage bins or shelves. Accompanying information also suggests employing color coding and offers suggestions for storage of vaccines that include two components (a lyophilized vaccine and a diluent).
 
View or print the labels from the CDC website.

Materials in this section are updated as new information and vaccines become available. The Vaccine Education Center staff regularly reviews materials for accuracy.
