Symptom narrative

Diluent only administered; accidentally received only the diluent portion of Hiberix; This non-serious case was reported by a nurse via call center representative and described the occurrence of inappropriate preparation of medication in a 6-month-old male patient who received Hib (Hiberix) for prophylaxis. On 20-MAR-2025, the patient received the 3rd dose of Hiberix. On 20-MAR-2025, an unknown time after receiving Hiberix, the patient experienced inappropriate preparation of medication (Verbatim: Diluent only administered) and inappropriate dose of vaccine administered (Verbatim: accidentally received only the diluent portion of Hiberix). The outcome of the inappropriate preparation of medication and inappropriate dose of vaccine administered were not applicable. Additional Information: GSK Receipt Date: 07-APR-2025 A registered nurse reported that a six-month 25 day old patient accidentally received only the diluent portion of Hiberix as their third dose, which led to an inappropriate preparation of medication and inappropriate dose of vaccine administered. They stated that they did not have the lot number or expiration date of the vaccine as the full vaccine was not administered and declined to received follow up. They requested to have the case escalated to global and, even though only the diluent portion inquiry was reported, an adverse event detail was added for the possible third dose. The vaccine administration facility was the same as primary reporter.
