Brief Answer:
Can be given.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. Enteroshield contains Vi capsular polysaccharide for Typhoid. The subsequent booster dose can be given either with Vi capsular polysaccharide or the conjugate vaccine (Vi polysaccharide conjugate). Typbar – TCV which is a Vi capsular polysaccharide linked to tetanus toxoid (conjugate) vaccine can therefore be given safely as the last dose and you can proceed with that without any worries. The vaccine being overdue would not matter.

Let me know if I could help further.

Regards
Brief Answer:
