A member asked:
Will it hurt if a teenager gets the dtap twice?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: This happens often enough when schools vaccinate and fail to pass along the information to the kids doc, or vise versa, that we have data to review. The kids have no negative response other than being disappointed about getting an extra shot.
