Pediatricians and other professionals providing care for children and adolescents refer to a variety of information sources for guidelines regarding optimal therapy on preventive care. In some instances, the guidelines from expert groups (including American Academy of Pediatrics [AAP] recommendations) may differ from material included in the manufacturer's package inserts, and the guidelines from different expert committees may be inconsistent on even conflicting. During recent months, the Committee on Infectious Diseases (COID) of the AAP has worked closely with the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) of the US Public Health Service and the American Academy of Family Practice to unify the recommendations on the immunization schedule for infants and children.
