On 30-JUL-2025, the patient received Shingrix. On 30-JUL-2025, an unknown time after receiving Shingrix, the patient experienced inappropriate dose of vaccine administered (Verbatim: Maladministration of AS01B adjuvant of Shingrix (without the lyophilized antigen component)) and inappropriate preparation of medication (Verbatim: Maladministration of AS01B adjuvant of Shingrix (without the lyophilized antigen component)). The outcome of the inappropriate dose of vaccine administered and inappropriate preparation of medication were not applicable. Additional Information: GSK receipt date: 08-AUG-2025 A clinical supervisor called to ask about the specific timeframe/additional vaccine administration for a valid dose of Shingrix, since five patients were potentially administered with the adjuvant alone which led to inappropriate preparation of medication and inappropriate dose of vaccine administration.
