Tolerability of Japanese Encephalitis Vaccine in Pediatric Patients: Table 1.

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus endemic to parts of Asia. Manufacture of JE-VAX, the mouse brain-derived vaccine against JEV, was discontinued in February 2011. IXIARO, an inactivated cell culture-derived vaccine, was approved in 2009 for use in adult patients. Although IXIARO was not licensed for pediatric patients until 2013, our clinic routinely used this vaccine in at-risk children starting in 2011. The purpose of this study was to review our experience as to the tolerability of the new IXIARO vaccine in children.
