Symptom narrative

Maladministration of Hiberix Diluent portion alone; administered the syringe diluent only; This non-serious case was reported by a other health professional via sales rep and described the occurrence of inappropriate preparation of medication in a patient who received Hib (Hiberix) for prophylaxis. On an unknown date, the patient received Hiberix. On an unknown date, an unknown time after receiving Hiberix, the patient experienced inappropriate preparation of medication (Verbatim: Maladministration of Hiberix Diluent portion alone) and inappropriate dose of vaccine administered (Verbatim: administered the syringe diluent only). The outcome of the inappropriate preparation of medication and inappropriate dose of vaccine administered were unknown. Additional Information: GSK Receipt Date: 03-FEB-2025 The reporter had a staff person that administered the syringe diluent only, that was saline, which led inappropriate preparation of medication and inappropriate dose of vaccine administered. The reporter asking was there any waiting period or should they just bring them back in for proper administration. The reporter could not find any guidance online specifically, but obvious sense of logic would say that it's not valid and no waiting period needed.
