The baby vaccination schedule in Turkey is implemented according to the program established by the Ministry of Health. The most common and basic vaccination schedule can be summarized as follows:
- At birth: Hepatitis B (1st dose)
- 1 month: Hepatitis B (2nd dose)
- 2 months: BCG (Tuberculosis vaccine), Combination vaccine (five-in-one — diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, Hib), Pneumococcal (tuberculosis vaccine, 1st dose)
- 4 months: Combination vaccine (2nd dose), Pneumococcal (2nd dose)
- 6 months: Combination vaccine (3rd dose), Pneumococcal (3rd dose), Hepatitis B (3rd dose)
- 12 months: Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR, 1st dose), Chickenpox (1st dose), Pneumococcal (booster)
- 18 months: Combination vaccine (booster), MMR (2nd dose), Chickenpox (2nd dose — in some regions)
- 24 months: Hepatitis A (1st dose), 30 months Hepatitis A (2nd dose)
- 1st grade of primary school: Combination vaccine (booster), MMR (booster)
Notes: The schedule may show minor variations by year and region. Vaccines are administered free of charge at family health centers (ASM). Optional vaccines (rotavirus, meningitis B, meningitis ACWY) may be recommended in addition and are subject to fees. For the definitive schedule, I recommend consulting your baby's family doctor.
