Let's get started with the show. Hey, welcome to Memorizing Pharmacology podcast. I just wanted to go over a quick mnemonic set for you for the vaccination schedule. So we're going to start with birth B for Hep B and the mnemonics are up at the top and the actual vaccines are down at the bottom. Then we want to be Dr. Hip at two months okay that's Hep B, DTaP, rotavirus, hemophilus influenza inactivated polio virus vaccine and pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. And then at four months we're just Dr. Hip no B for Hep B so DTaP, rotavirus, Hib, IPV, PCV. Then six months we want to be Dr. Hip again and that I N from again is for the influenza virus that we're going to start that vaccine at six months. Then 12 months I have an HP monitor view literally this is these are HP monitors or Hewlett Packard monitors so it goes from Hep B to Hep A then we're also going to still have our Hib our PCV and now we're going to add MMR and varicella so an HP monitor view at 12 months. Then from 5 to 8 AM that's kind of dawn so we keep our DTaP and then from four to six years we have dusk so around four to six PM starts to get the Sun starts to go down a little bit tougher to see and so it's a bit dim so DIM for DTaP IPV and MMR and then view for varicella. At 11 to 12 years we have Tdap and the important thing is that you kind of think of ta-da because which is how you would say it but the key is to get from DTaP to Tdap and know that 11 to 12 is when we make that change. Papilloma there's two L's in the middle that looks like an 11 and then meningococcal 12 is when you become an adult or men when you look at the back of for example a Motrin liquid you see that it only goes up to 11. And so when you're talking about dosing something like that that's when you start using these adult doses and then it's 16 year old men get kind of a boost and that's the next booster for meningococcal. And then there's some kind of goofy ones at 19 years with Tdap that's really if you're an adult you've never had tetanus before 19 and over you definitely want to do that and then in pregnancy to prevent whooping cough it reduces it by like 78 percent for someone that's under two months you're going to do 27 to 36 months now how do you remember that well the reason I put them together is that it makes up one two three here so 19 years for that adult 27 to 36 months for someone who's pregnant. And then the 20 to seven to thirty six how do you remember that well it's two three going up and seven six going down. So hopefully that's helpful to see the vaccine schedule mnemonic in four minutes or less. Like to learn more?
