Childhood Vaccine Guide: Brands, Ingredients & Schedule

By IN2Labs Last reviewed October 12, 2026 Sources: CDC, FDA Editorial policy

A neutral, source-linked reference to every vaccine in the planner. For each one you'll find the licensed brands, how much aluminum (if any) each contains, the full ingredient list, and how a slower schedule can sometimes finish with fewer total doses.

Key takeaways

This guide covers 11 childhood vaccines, each with US-licensed brands, ingredient lists and delayed-schedule notes.
Products for HepB, DTaP, PCV, HepA use an aluminum adjuvant, and some Hib brands do; the amount per brand is listed on each vaccine page.
HepB, DTaP, IPV, Hib, PCV, MMR, VAR are typically required for kindergarten entry; requirements vary by state.
Delaying can reduce doses for Hib, PCV, DTaP and IPV in healthy children, while rotavirus has strict age limits and cannot be delayed.
Brand and ingredient details come from the CDC excipient summary and FDA package inserts; formulations change, so confirm against the current label.
