If 5-in-1 has HepB: The 5-in-1 shot may be dtap-hepb-ipv, which means diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, hepatitis b, and inactivated polio vaccine. Another brand has hib (hemophilus type b) instead of hepatitis b in it. One can check with the shot clinic to be sure which 5-in-1 is being used. Getting the hepb shot inside a 5-in-1 vaccine is equivalent to getting the hepb shot by itself.
