| HEP | HEP B (ENGERIX-B) | GLAXOSMITHKLINE BIOLOGICALS | 2 | — | IM / RA |
An expired dose of hep B was given to a patient. It was not realized until after the vaccine was given that it was expired as our computer inventory said it expired 12/17/2025 and the vaccine expiration date on the package and the vaccine itself said 2/17/25. Call placed to GSK to inquire if vaccine is potentially still good since close to expiration date. GSK said they do in-house testing which shows the potency of the vaccine remains satisfactory for up to 30 days after expiration however they have to recommend per CDC & immunize.gov that the dose be considered invalid and be repeated ASAP. Attempted to reach patient and was not able to get a hold of them. Will continue to try and reach patient. Updated MD who was present, as well as clinic manager and clinical director.
