Question

Can milk be consumed after the polio vaccine sugar cubes have been taken by infants?

Answer

After infants have taken the polio vaccine sugar cubes, it is advisable to avoid immediate consumption of hot milk, as high temperatures may affect the vaccine’s effectiveness. If this has already occurred, it is recommended to consult a doctor and take another polio vaccine sugar cube, using lukewarm water (below 37 degrees Celsius) to dissolve it. Generally, taking an additional dose of the vaccine is harmless for infants.
